StemBar
Function similar to the matlab stem3 but drawing bars instead of lines with markers.

now it works. I need to run stembar again with color information.
%%%%%%%%%%
x=[1 3 2 1 3]';
y=[1 1 2 3 3]';
z=[8.6 6 11.1 14.1 12.4]';
h = stembar(x,y,z); % 5 bars, 30 faces
zdata = ones(length(h),4); % each face has 4 vertices
% specify the color map
k=0;
for i=1:length(h)/6
ztop = get(h(i*6),'Zdata');
ztop = ztop';
for j=1:6
zdata(6*(i-1)+j,:)=ztop;
end
end
% now give the color specification
% and run 'stembar' again
zdata = zdata';
h=stembar(x,y,z,zdata);
colormap cool
colorbar
%%%%%%%%%%%%
It is strange that it doesn't work when I use set(h,'Cdata',zdata),
maybe it's a bug in the command 'fill3'.
however set(h,'facealpha',0.5) works
and set(h,'edgecolor','b') also works.

I have a question: how to colormap the bars according to their heights.
I read the help of "bar3", and 'h' in 'stembar.m' returns the handle of each face. So I write the following code:
%%
zdata = ones(length(h),4);
k=0;
for i=1:length(h)/6
ztop = get(h(i*6),'Zdata');
ztop = ztop';
for j=1:6
zdata(6*(i-1)+j,:)=ztop;
k=k+1;
set(h(k),'Cdata',zdata(k,:))
end
end
colormap cool
colorbar
%%
in order to colormap the bars. But it doesn't work.
Could you help me with this problem? I think I haven't totally understand how 'Cdata' works.
