2 Plots In One Figure Matlab
- Then call a plotting function to plot into the axes. For example, create two plots in a 2-by-1 layout. Add a title to each plot. Note: This code uses the tiledlayout function, which is available starting in R2019b. If you are using an earlier release, use the subplot function instead.
- You need to use hold on after the first plot and hold off after the last plot if you want multiple plots in the same figure. Use figure before all of the plots to put them in a new figure. Emad el deen omran on 27 Oct 2020 0.
This example shows how to combine plots in the same axes using the hold function, and how to create multiple axes in a figure using the tiledlayout function. The tiledlayout function is available starting in R2019b. If you are using an earlier release, use the subplot function instead.
Sorry for the inconvience again, I updated to Matlab 2019a, I want to plot the data (attached) just the column 1 years (On X-axis) with the column 2 (on Y-axis). I got the same problem which it shows the years 2002.5 2003.5 on the X-Axis.
Combine Plots in Same Axes
By default, new plots clear existing plots and reset axes properties, such as the title. However, you can use the hold on command to combine multiple plots in the same axes. For example, plot two lines and a scatter plot. Then reset the hold state to off.
When the hold state is on, new plots do not clear existing plots or reset axes properties, such as the title or axis labels. The plots cycle through colors and line styles based on the ColorOrder and LineStyleOrder properties of the axes. The axes limits and tick values might adjust to accommodate new data.
Display Multiple Axes in a Figure
You can display multiple axes in a single figure by using the tiledlayout function. This function creates a tiled chart layout containing an invisible grid of tiles over the entire figure. Each tile can contain an axes for displaying a plot. After creating a layout, call the nexttile function to place an axes object into the layout. Then call a plotting function to plot into the axes. For example, create two plots in a 2-by-1 layout. Add a title to each plot.

Create Plot Spanning Multiple Rows or Columns
To create a plot that spans multiple rows or columns, specify the span argument when you call nexttile. For example, create a 2-by-2 layout. Plot into the first two tiles. Then create a plot that spans one row and two columns.
Modify Axes Appearance
Modify the axes appearance by setting properties on each of the axes objects. You can get the axes object by calling the nexttile function with an output argument. You also can specify the axes object as the first input argument to a graphics function to ensure that the function targets the correct axes.
For example, create two plots and assign the axes objects to the variables ax1 and ax2. Change the axes font size and x-axis color for the first plot. Add grid lines to the second plot.
Control Spacing Around the Tiles
You can control the spacing around the tiles in a layout by specifying the Padding and TileSpacing properties. For example, display four plots in a 2-by-2 layout.
Minimize the spacing around the perimeter of the layout and around each tile by setting the Padding and TileSpacing properties to 'none'.
Display Shared Title and Axis Labels
You can display a shared title and shared axis labels in a layout. Create a 2-by-1 layout t. Then display a line plot and a stem plot. Synchronize the x-axis limits by calling the linkaxes function.
Add a shared title and shared axis labels by passing t to the title, xlabel, and ylabel functions. Move the plots closer together by removing the x-axis tick labels from the top plot and setting the TileSpacing property of t to 'compact'.
