For adjusting the amount of decimals in TickLabels
32 Downloads
Updated 15 Oct 2022

TLDECCHECK: Checks the TickLabels of all axes objects of the current figure
and adjusts the amount of decimals so that they are uniform.
Syntax: TLDECCHECK - adjusts the decimals
automatically.
TLDECCHECK('OptionName', OptionValue)
OptionName - OptionValue pairs:

- 'axes' - Axes handle, e.g. TLDECCHECK('axes', gca)
(default: array containing all axes objects in gcf)
- 'xNumDecimals' - Specifies the number of decimals the XTickLabels
should be set to (numeric).
- 'yNumDecimals' - Specifies the number of decimals the YTickLabels
should be set to (numeric).
- 'cNumDecimals' - Specifies the number of decimals the colorbar
TickLabels should be set to (numeric).
- 'xMode' - 'auto' (default) or 'manual' - Set this to
'manual' for reduction of the XTickLabel decimals through
manual input. Doing so overrides the
'numDecimals' option.
- 'yMode' - 'auto' (default) or 'manual' - Set this to
'manual' for reduction of the YTickLabel decimals through
manual input. Doing so overrides the
'numDecimals' option.
- 'cMode' - 'auto' (default) or 'manual' - Set this to
'manual' for reduction of the colorbar TickLabel decimals through
manual input. Doing so overrides the
'numDecimals' option.
- 'xLabelUnits' - Specify a custom unit (default: '%') that the XTickLabels
are checked for (string).
- 'yLabelUnits' - Specify a custom unit (default: '%') that the
YTickLabels are checked for (string).
- 'cLabelUnits' - Specify a custom unit (default: '%') that the
colorbar TickLabels are checked for (string).

Old syntax: (still works)
TLDECCHECK - adjusts the decimals
automatically.
TLDECCHECK(nd) - adjusts the decimals and reduces the
amount of decimals to nd
TLDECCHECK('manual') - reduction of the decimals through
manual input

Input arguments (old syntax):

- nd: Amount of decimals for TickLabels (optional)
-> Integer, for use on all axes objects
-> String, 'manual', to set number of decimals for each axes
object separately

Hint:

- If using the 'manual' option, invisible axes objects may be found.
Just input a random number if this happens.
