Merging multiple subplots into a mosaic

6 views (last 30 days)
I would like to make a subplot but in a way that there is not so much space between the plots. It should look like It should look something like this so that the axis labels and scales are only on the left and on the bottom and not on every plot separately and that all the plots are separated only by their axis.
I read the help on the subplot function but there is no mention of anything that would help me with this.
Thank you very much in advance!

Thanks, this third one seems best for the problem I described.

Something like this: just change the plot command with what you wan to plot..
% Create subplot
subplot1 = subplot(4,4,1,'XTickLabel',{'','','',''});
box(subplot1,'on');
hold(subplot1,'all')
% Create plot
plot(rand(4,1));
% Create subplot
subplot2 = subplot(4,4,2,'XTickLabel',{'','','',''},'YTickLabel',{'','',''});
box(subplot2,'on');
hold(subplot2,'all');
plot(rand(4,1));
% Create subplot
subplot3 = subplot(4,4,3,'XTickLabel',{'','','',''},'YTickLabel',{'','',''});
box(subplot3,'on');
hold(subplot3,'all');
% Create plot
plot(rand(4,1));
% Create subplot
subplot4 = subplot(4,4,4,'XTickLabel',{'','','',''},'YTickLabel',{'','',''});
box(subplot4,'on');
hold(subplot4,'all');
% Create plot
plot(rand(4,1));
% Create subplot
subplot5 = subplot(4,4,5,'XTickLabel',{'','','',''});
box(subplot5,'on');
hold(subplot5,'all');
% Create plot
plot(rand(4,1));
% Create subplot
subplot6 = subplot(4,4,6,'XTickLabel',{'','','',''},'YTickLabel',{'','',''});
box(subplot6,'on');

This is very nice, thank you. Is there a way to decrease the amount of space between the plots?
