Problem with stacking plots, color on x-axis

Hello, I need some help with a plotting issue that I've been having for over a month. I have been stacking plots on the same specified paper,

xPaper = 21.59;
yPaper = 27.94;
set(gcf,...
    'paperunits','centimeters',...
    'papersize', [xPaper yPaper])
xSize = 15; 
ySize = 21;  
set(gcf,...
    'PaperPosition',[1 5 xSize ySize],...
    'PaperPositionMode', 'manual',...
    'Position',[800 400 xSize*50 ySize*50])
I then specify different y and x positions on the page; For example:

y = 16.7/Ysize
y2 = 11.2/Ysize ...etc.

Then before plotting each plot, I specify the position of the plot, so I can stack them accordingly:

   for example: axes('position',[x y width height])

the problem I'm having is that I CANNOT get the x axis on my stacked plots to remain white or have no color.

This is the set(gca) that i've been using:

set(gca,'xlim', [date_s(1,1) date_s(end,1)],...
     'ylim',[-2.5 3],...
     'yaxislocation','left',...
     'tickdir','in',...
     'fontsize',ft,...
     'linewidth', 2,...
     'color','none',...
     'xcolor',get(gcf,'color'))

I've attached the result of what i'm getting! I've also tried 'color', 'white',...

I'm not seeing the x-axis in the attached picture. Perhaps you could provide a full runnable example?

Either way, this should work, repeat it for both axes that you have:

ax = gca %axes('position',etc)
ax.XAxis.Visible = 'off'
