Algorithm (Workflow)

This function, VLFLshow, is designed to bring the current figure window to the front and make it visible. It is part of the VLFL-Library, specifically for visualization purposes.

Input Parameters

The function does not take any input parameters.

Output

The function returns an image of the current figure (gcf).

Algorithm Steps

set(gcf, 'visible', 'on'): This command makes the current figure window visible. If the figure window was previously hidden, this command ensures it is displayed on the screen.
rotate3d('on'): This command enables 3D rotation for the current figure. It allows the user to interactively rotate the figure using the mouse.

Related Functions

shg: A MATLAB command that shows the current figure window.
smbDrawNow, drawnow: Commands that update figure windows and process any pending callbacks.
show: Another function related to displaying figures.

The function is straightforward and primarily focuses on ensuring the visibility and interactivity of the current figure window in MATLAB.
