Certain topics are covered in multiple places in the documentation. But if
you compare URLs the second one I posted matches this one.

Yes, that will change the default value for the ColorOrder property used by
any axes that are later created in the figure whose handle was returned by
that call to GCF. [Note that this will not affect existing axes unless they
get cleared as per a call to PLOT or CLA or the like, which reset the
ColorOrder property to the (new) default.]
