how to increase figure window height?

Hello everyone,

I am trying to make a subplot array of (5,2,1:10)in five rows and two columns that I exactly need. While making the plot I found all of my subplots are squeezed but still I have enough space at the top as well as at the bottom. When I take the print of pdf it seems like the figure used only half of the page in the middle. Does anybody have any idea how can I increase the height of the figure window as well as the height of each subplot. I used the following the command for each subplot only changing the position.

subplot(5,2,1);

plot(x1,TGMdaily(:,1),'ro-','MarkerSize',2)

set(gca,'xlim',[0 24],'xtick',[0:2:24],...
        'xticklabel',[])

ylabel('TGM (ng/m^3)','FontSize',10);

Thank you very much in advance.

 plot(t,y)
%the max you can do is
 set(gca,'position',[0 0 1 1])

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

I suggest

set(ax1,'position',[0.05 0.05 0.9 0.9])

I suggest plottools

using this tool, you can interactively design your plots. You can further create the M-code from there itself. And use this code in your main program.

It's easy

The following is the function I generated using plottools :

function createfigure %CREATEFIGURE
