A = rand(4,3);
s = size(A);
index = 1:s(1)+1:s(1)*s(2); % Indices of the main diagonal
A(index) = A(index) * 2
This touches the elements on the diagonal only.

@Image Analyst For loop would work for sure, but would it be more performable without using loop? Just extract the logicals by the positions of the indices in A.

I don't know what you mean by "performable". Sure there are other ways to perform this operation that may work, however I did not understand your explanation of extracting the logicals so I invite you to show your non-for loop way that doubles the values in the 4 diagonals in a non-square matrix, for example a 5 by 10 matrix.
m = ones(5, 10)
Please show us.

Here's a way you can do it using eye() to create indexes of the diagonal. I show two ways,
- one to create another output matrix and leave the input matrix alone, and
- another to change the input matrix in place.
% Create a logical mask for the diagonal elements.
d = logical(eye(size(m)))
% First way: Create an output matrix m2, retaining the original m.
m2 = m % Initialize with a copy of m
% Multiply diagonal elements of m2 (in place) by 2.
m2(d) = m(d) * 2 % Input values are replaced.
% Second way: Change/replace the values in original matrix.
% Multiply diagonal elements (in place) by 2.
m(d) = m(d) * 2 % Input values are replaced.
The two ways are the same except if you want a second matrix for the output you have to copy the input matrix first.

At least in current Matlab versions:
d = eye(size(m), 'logical'); % faster than: logical(...)
