How do I use 'axis tight' with appdesigner?

40 views (last 30 days)
Hi, I'm using app designer to display some simple plots, how do i use the 'axis tight' command within the app designer code for the integrated figure?
I've tried this, but its not working as I want:
plot(app.UIAxes, S, Prices);
title(app.UIAxes, 'Price');
axis tight
Thanks for any help in advance!

Hi Matt,
Try specifying which axis you want to be tight:
plot(app.UIAxes, S, Prices);
title(app.UIAxes, 'Price');
axis(app.UIAxes, 'tight');
I have a hunch that the problem may be that "axis tight" does not find app.UIAxes, so instead you need to specify which axis you want to be tight. You do that by calling axis(<axis you want>, 'tight');
For more information, see: axis
Hope this helps!

Just as an additional note, you should get into the habit of doing this for all axes. I haven't used appdesigner much but if it forces you to specify explicit axes for operations that is a big step forward!
