Hello all,
I do have two figures output from the matlab code (with the same axis unit) and i would like to keep both figures in the one single figure only. How can i do that ?
For example, you can refer two figures as attached
Thanks

Is there a particular reason you're @-mentioning me? It doesn't look like you're stuck with the people already helping you in this thread.

tiledlayout(2,1)
nexttile
scatter(rand(10,1),rand(10,1),'sr')
nexttile
scatter(rand(10,1),rand(10,1),'gh')
You can also use the hold function.
figure
scatter(rand(10,1),rand(10,1),'sr')
hold on
scatter(rand(10,1),rand(10,1),'gh')
If you want to merge the two figures you have into one plot:
fig1 = openfig('Figure 1.fig');
fig2 = openfig('Figure 2.fig');
for ii = length(fig1.Children.Children):-1:1
fig1.Children.Children(ii).Parent=fig2.Children;
end

Do you have the x and y values for each figure? You should have them before you created and save the figure. Can you post the x and y values in a .mat file?

@Esila Darci I did merge Figure 1 and Figure 2. Since both figures had the same datapoints, you cannot notice the change without looking at the figure handle.
Below you can see Figure 1 and Figure 2 are the same.
openfig('Figure 1.fig');
xlim([-0.1 0.2])
ylim([-0.04 .16])
openfig('Figure 2.fig');
xlim([-0.1 0.2])
ylim([-0.04 .16])
Now I'm going to change the colors of all the lines in Figure 2 to green.
fig = openfig('Figure 2.fig');
for ii = length(fig.Children.Children):-1:1
fig.Children.Children(ii).Color = 'g';
end
xlim([-0.1 0.2])
ylim([-0.04 .16])
This is what Figure 3 looks like
openfig('Figure 3.fig');
xlim([-0.1 0.2])
ylim([-0.04 .16])
I will now take points from Figure 2 and Figure 3 and place them on Figure 4.
fig2 = openfig('Figure 2.fig');
for ii = length(fig2.Children.Children):-1:1
fig2.Children.Children(ii).Color = 'g';
end
fig3 = openfig('Figure 3.fig');
fig4 = figure;
axes;
% Moving Figure 3 lines to Figure 4
for ii = length(fig3.Children.Children):-1:1
fig3.Children.Children(ii).Parent = fig4.Children;
end
% Moving Figure 2 lines to Figure 4
for ii = length(fig2.Children.Children):-1:1
fig2.Children.Children(ii).Parent = fig4.Children;
end
% Remove empty figures
delete(fig2)
delete(fig3)
