How to make plot size consistent across different screens

Hello,
I use a variety of monitors as part of my work. The aspect ratio of my exported plots on MATLAB changes depending on which monitor I use. I am currently using my laptop which has a 16:9 wide screen, I want my plots to look more consistent with my other monitor that has a 4:3 aspect ratio. Is there an easy way I can do this?
Thank you!

No, there is not.
You can configure everything to use Normalized units, but unless you make the font size normalized as well then the characters will not fit cleanly into the space allocated. And if you do make the font size normalized, then you probably will have trouble reading it on some screens.
Adjusting properly for different screen sizes really requires a layout manager that can handle things like re-flowing text and figuring out how big a text box you need and then positioning graphics elements to line up properly, and so on. And remember to allow users to choose larger or smaller font sizes...
