How can I change the axis in Matlab app designer?

Hi
I have a small problem. I have used swith on and off function on matlab appdesigner. I get the right values on my plot when I press switch on. But when the empy plot appears, I get valus for y axis that I dont want ( these are 0 to 1) , see the picture attached. How can I get rid of this default thing as my values that appear when I switch the button on, are between 0 and -300 (dependent on some criteria I have coded in the app designer) and that is what I want the plot to show also when it is empty.

Afraid you're going to have to explain what the switch on and off does, specifically, unless it is simply toggling the 'Visible' property 'on','off'.
The default axis scaling is (and has always been) 0-1 on creation of an axis until data are present. If you want some specific range use ylim with that range first, before making the plot visible. Note you may also need to set hold on in order of it to "stick".
