%OPTION 1: Overwrite the XTickLabel property of the axes. (Simpler code but messy plot)
plot([1:10]*10^6, 1:10)
XTick = num2cell(get(gca, 'XTick'));
XTickLabel = cellfun(@(x) sprintf('%0.0f', x), XTick, 'unif', false);
set(gca, 'XTickLabel', XTickLabel, 'XTickLabelRotation', 90)
%OPTION 2: Determine what power was used, then adjust the x-axis name and XTickLabel. (Cleaner plot)
plot([1:10]*10^6, 1:10)
XTick = get(gca, 'XTick');
XTickLabel = get(gca, 'XTickLabel');
XTickLabelNum = str2double(XTickLabel{end});
Power = log10(XTick(end)/XTickLabelNum);
if Power ~= 0
xlabel(sprintf('X TEXT (x 10^{%d})', Power))
else
xlabel('X TEXT')
end
set(gca, 'XTickLabel', XTickLabel)
