Is it possible to plot on fullscreen with MATLAB?

I would like to use the entire screen, without window frame, menu, etc. Just a fullscreen plot area. Is it possible?

 Accepted Answer

It is possible to do this as of release R2018a using the WindowState property of a figure object.

add the following line after figure()
set(gcf, 'WindowState', 'maximized');

No, I mean, I don't want any window! I need a fullscreen picture on the entire screen!
The user-posted links in that Question point to solutions that go full-screen. The one in the File Exchange works out to use the same Java trick as the short java solution posted in the link I pointed to.

If you work under Windows see: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/31437-windowapi . There is no built-in Matlab function to do so:
FigH = figure;
WindowAPI(FigH, 'full'); % complete monitor
WindowAPI(FigH, 'work'); % complete monitor without taskbar, if there is one

I am under OSX, but I think it is possible somehow, for example the Psychophys Toolbox can do it
