Hello all,
I want to draw shapes such as dots, circles, rectangles etc. in a Matlab figure, but not in a graph.
I mean a blank screen and shapes in it.
Anyone can help?

I think you can specify any points of the figure, and set the points as "white" color to let it invisible. And draw the shapes at those points. Therefore only the shapes will be seen. Does that meet your requirements?

Try something like this:
x1 = rand(1,5);
y1 = rand(1,5);
x2 = rand(1,7);
y2 = rand(1,7);
figure
plot(x1, y1, 'or', 'MarkerSize',20)
hold on
plot(x2, y2, 'sg', 'MarkerSize',20)
hold off
set(gca, 'Color','none', 'GridAlpha',0, 'XColor','none', 'YColor','none', 'ZColor','none') % This Turns Off Everything That Would Make It Appear As A ‘plot’
producing (in these random calls):
