Color Bar Classifying different time points

8 views (last 30 days)
I have three sets of time - Time1, Time2, Time3. These three time points do not overlap. I would like to make a color bar to show when it is Time1, Time2 or Time3. this is hard to describe so I attached an image with the basic design. The idea being that this would continue for whatever times are in each of the three vectors.
Please let me know if I can clarify anymore.

I attached two matrices with time points. The plot just could be similar to the plot above, other than that I am not too picky!

Oh, I thought you had some x-y data to go with the times. I have actually written a code for this exact type of plot before. I'll see if I can find it in my previous answers.
Edit: Here it is. I'll see if I can adapt it to your data.

Try something like this, which is based on a previous answer
n=length(t_comb_2(:));
subplot(1,2,1);
x=t_comb_2;
x=x';
x=x(:)';
tic
X=[0 x;0 x];
Y=[1.1.*ones(1,n+1);0.9.*ones(1,n+1)];
colormap(lines(n+1))
Z=linspace(0,1,n+1);
Z=[Z;Z];
surf(X,Y,Z)
view([0 90])
set(gca,'ycolor','none')
axis tight
ylabel('time')
.
Note that the colors were are determined by their z-value and the colormap lines. You can change the colormap and try different ones.

I have been trying to work with your solution and I do not htink that it is addressing what I asked

Its a bar with different color segments... How can it not be what you asked? Do you want time1 and time2 plotted in the same bar?? Are they not overlapping?
