How to prevent the elongated plot when using tiled layout for image and plot

4 views (last 30 days)
When I align an image and a plot in tiled layout, the plot tends to become "elongated" as shown in an example below. Is there any good way to prevent this?
[X,Y,Z] = peaks(20);
figure;
tiledlayout(1,2);
nexttile; imagesc(Z); daspect([1 1 1]);
nexttile; surf(X,Y,Z);

There are a few ways you can manipulate this. Here is one way, using the daspect command you used before:
[X,Y,Z] = peaks(20);
figure;
tiledlayout(1,2);
nexttile; imagesc(Z); daspect([1 1 1]);
nexttile; surf(X,Y,Z); daspect([1 1 2.5])
You could also use axis square:
[X,Y,Z] = peaks(20);
figure;
tiledlayout(1,2);
nexttile; imagesc(Z); daspect([1 1 1]);
nexttile; surf(X,Y,Z); axis square
I think the view command might also be handy, if you are looking for a particular perspective.
