Hello everybody,
I have been experiencing a weird behaviour in imagesc when changing the size of the figure. It is hard to explain so attached a link to a video demonstrating what's going. I just do a
imagesc(data)
and then change the size of the figure with my mouse. Can anyone explain whats going on?
All the best!

Luca - perhaps you could describe what is happening and/or attach a screen shot...rather than a link to what may be a video.

It does not just look like there is an interpolation, when you resize the image, but of course there is in fact an interpolation. Because you cannot change the size of the pixels on the screen, you have to interpolate the data to display it for different sizes of the figure. What do you expect instead?
Maybe you want to modify the kind of the interpolation. Then you have to do the scaling by your own based on imresize . I'm happy with the 'lanczos3' method, which produces small artifacts only.
As far as I can see, the documentation does not mention, how image interpolates the output: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/image.html
I'm going to send an enhancement request to add this in the docs, or maybe to have this as a user-defined property.
[EDITED] I asked a corresponding question at first, because this feature seems to be such important, that it should be implemented already.
