How to make error bars on double bar graph?

18 views (last 30 days)
Hi i am trying to get error bars on my double bar graphs but it wont show. I am using MATLAB R2020a. Please help!
y=[6 8;8 10; 9 99;19 68;20 52;];
x = [categorical({'Control' , 'Target', 'NT1', 'NT2', 'NT3'})];
bar(x,y)
figure;
hold on
b= bar(x, y);
ax = gca;
ax.FontSize = 14;
xlabel("Sample", 'FontSize', 20);
ylabel("Peaks", 'FontSize', 20);
title("Specificity", 'FontSize', 26);
error_data=[];
error_data= [1 2; 1 3; 8 3; 4 2; 2 2;];
errorbar(x, y, error_data,'k','linestyle','none');
errorbar(x, y, error_data,'k','linestyle','none');
hold off

I have no idea when XEndPoints and YEndPoints was introduced, however it was relatively recently (within the last few years).
This works in R2022a
y=[6 8;8 10; 9 99;19 68;20 52;];
error_data= [1 2; 1 3; 8 3; 4 2; 2 2;];
x = [categorical({'Control' , 'Target', 'NT1', 'NT2', 'NT3'})];
figure
hold on
hb = bar(x, y);
for k = 1:numel(hb)
errorbar(hb(k).XEndPoints, hb(k).YEndPoints, error_data(:,k), '.k', 'MarkerSize',0.1)
end
ax = gca;
ax.FontSize = 14;
xlabel("Sample", 'FontSize', 20);
ylabel("Peaks", 'FontSize', 20);
title("Specificity", 'FontSize', 26);
If this doesn’t work in your version, go here for an alternative approach that probably will. (It fails in R2022a since XOffset may no longer exist, so I cannot illustrate it here.)
