How to maintain the same "xticks" and "yticks" for multiple plots?

%%the variable "accuracy" is a 1x60 array containing accuracy values.

figure('Position', get(0, 'Screensize'));

    xticks(0:5:60);yticks(0:0.05:1);

    findpeaks(accuracy);

The above code is for one data. There are multiple such data. So there are multiple plots.

But, for the above code, the "yticks" for the plot gets automatically adjusted according to the data.

How to modify the above code so that the "yticks" remains the same as defined for all the plots?

doc linkaxes

or

doc linkprops

if you need more fine control, but linkaxes should work fine, using the 'y' argument if you don't also want the x axis to be the same.

Hi Adam, Thanks for the response. Is there any other way to solve the issue?? Because, the code fragment mentioned in the question is a part of a function. It is something like this

function f1(data)

%%code for computing accuracy (y-axis) for different values of a variable (x-axis)
%%code for plotting the accuracy (as given in the question)
%%saving the plot as an image
%%close all windows to save the PC from crashing

end

There are almost 400 instances of data and the details of the data are passed from a main function. So, in this case i am unable to link axes. And I don't have any subplots. If there were any way of indexing the plots, then I may may use the index to link axes.

[Adam]

Well, if you don't have the axes you don't have access to the ticks either so I can't think of any easy way you would be able to do it.

If you are running the data in succession you could pass the range of the first set of data on to when you plot the second and so on, but that only works if you want to apply the range of the first data set to all the rest. If the range is to be defined by some arbitrary data set in the middle of the range then you can't retroactively apply this to all the previous ones if you haven't kept hold of all their axes handles.

[Tintumon]

Applying the range of the first data set to all the rest would be fine. But how to do it??

[Adam]

It depends how your code is structured, but in theory just work out the range (or use ylim to get hold of it after plotting of that is what you want) and then pass it as an argument to the functions in which you plot all the rest of the data and when you plot then use

doc ylim

to set the y limit range to the values passed in each time you plot.

Thanks.
