I need to change y axis of this plot:
to this:
so, I would like to have 1 instead from 0 in the middle of y axis.
If you want the graph to focus on only a small set of y values and not change any of your data, use ylim:
ylim([0.95 1.05]);
This is assuming that your graph is already open and want to adjust that graph in focus. Also, this will adjust the y-axis of your plot while maintaining your data to be the same and show the dynamic range to go from 0.95 to 1.05. Your wording is very unclear, and judging from your plot and your wording, I believe this is what you're after (#LuisMendo - Mentalist).

We're encountering a problem while plotting the frequency of our signal with the surf()-function. As you can see in the picture below, it doesn't fully fill up the plot window. How do we adjust it so that the left plot fills out the graph as well as the right one (which is using spectrogram())?
Picture of our plots:
You can use xlim and ylim to set the limits of the x and y axes. In your case, you could consider something like:
ylim([min(Frequency) max(Frequency)]

How can I control the x- and y-values for a 3-d bar plot in Matlab?
Details
Say we have an 10 x 20 data matrix and we plot it using bar3, and we want to set the x- and y-values. For instance:
foodat = rand(10,20);
xVals = [5:14];
yVals = [-3:16];
bar3(xVals, foodat);
xlabel('x'); ylabel('y');
Is there a way to feed it the yVals as well? Otherwise the y axes always defaults to [1:N].
Note I don't just want to change the labels using XTickLabel and YTickLabel. I need to change the actual values on the axes, because I am plotting multiple things in the same figure. It isn't enough to just change how the (wrong) axis ticks are labeled. So this is different from issues like this:
How can I adjust 3-D bar grouping and y-axis labeling in MATLAB?
Other things I have tried
When I try changing the xvals with:
set(gca,'XTick', xVals)
set(gca,'YTick', yVals)
The values are taken in, but actually show up on the wrong axes, so it seems x and y axes are switched using bar3. Plus, it is too late anyway as the bar graph was already plotted with the wrong x- and y-values, so we would end up giving ticks to empty values.
Note added
Matlab tech support just emailed me to let me know about the user contributed function scatterbar3, which does what I want, in a different way than the accepted answer:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/1420-scatterbar3
I found a way of doing it. Ill give you a piece of code, then you'll need to "tidy up" , mainly the axis limits and the Xticks, as bar3 does set up the Xticks inside, so if you want others you'll need to set them manually yourself.
So the trick here is to get the Xdata from the bar3 handle. The thing here is that it seems that there is a handle for each row of the data, so you need to iterate for each of them. Here is the code with the current output:
foodat = rand(20,10);
xVals = [5:14];
yVals = [-3:16];
% The values of Y are OK if called like this.
subplot(121)
bar3(yVals, foodat);
subplot(122)
h=bar3(yVals, foodat);
Xdat=get(h,'XData');
axis tight
% Widdth of barplots is 0.8
for ii=1:length(Xdat)
Xdat{ii}=Xdat{ii}+(min(xVals(:))-1)*ones(size(Xdat{ii}));
set(h(ii),'XData',Xdat{ii});
end
axis([(min(xVals(:))-0.5) (max(xVals(:))+0.5) min(yVals(:))-0.5, max(yVals(:))+0.5])
Note: Y looks different but is not.
As you can see now the X values are the ones you wanted. If you'd want other size than 1 for the intervals between them you'd need to change the code, but you can guess how probably!
I want to draw a plot that displays y tick labels are similar to the below image. How can I do that?
thanks for your attentions
The y axis is setup as logarithmic.
you can create plots similar to this using
semilogy(xData,yData)
If you wanted the plot to look the same, you would of course need to use the semilogy to plot the data and then also add x and y axis labels using something like the following
xlabel('Fitness Evaluations');
ylabel('Error');
If you truly want to only show the powers of 10 on the y axis, meaning the power number, you can do something like as follows
labels = sort(str2num(get(gca,'YTickLabel')));
set(gca,'YTickLabel',labels);
labels = [' 1 ';'10 '; '100'];
set(gca,'YTickLabel',lbls);
This will set the YtickLabels to 1, 10 and 100. If you want LaTeX to interpret your ticklabels such that you will see (10⁰,10¹,10²), you can download this file from matlab exchange.

i have this problem with gap between Y axis changed when different data is being enter.
First: the third data point is close with other points
Second: the third data point is slightly further
Third: the third data point is even further from the other points
Somehow i change expandRangeByFactor then different kind of gap will appear between each Y axis line.
I wonder how can i have the Y axis gap being fix(not affected by the data that i've put in)?
Thanks
Don't change the yRange of the plot space. Be aware that methods like -scaleToFitPlots: and user interaction (scrolling, zooming) can change the ranges, too.
I have created a scatter graph with three plot spaces. One for two y-axis each and one for the x-axis. I am able to show data for both y-axis. However now i want to move only the data,i.e. two line and not the two y-axis.Only the data and x-axis should move.
I have tried allowUserinteraction property. However is I enable it for x-axis, x axis moves without the data. If i enable it for both/either of axis, y axis also moves with data and scale of y-axis is not visible all the time. Can someone help pleas.e This is my first work with core plot.
I will add code if required.
Thanks
Since each plot space has both x and y ranges, I would just use two plot spaces for this situation. Use the same xRange for both plot spaces and assign the x-axis to one of them.
The easiest way to make them scroll only in the X direction is to set the globalYRange to the same range as the yRange for both plot spaces. Set allowsUserInteraction to YES for both plot spaces. If you need to change the yRange later, set the globalYRange to nil before you change the yRange and reset it afterwards. If you ever update the X range manually, be sure to always set it on both plot spaces.
