Hi Daniel, I don't know much about CPU serial numbers, but from what I've read they don't exist in modern CPUs. See e.g.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_Serial_Number#Controversy_about_privacy_issues

When I ask for the serial on my CPUs (on linux) I just get "none specified".

It might be possible to get the motherboard serial number, although I haven't managed to get it on Linux without sudo'ing (not a problem on Windows as far as I can tell).

What is it you want to achieve?

Cheers. Ben

Hi Karan, when you say "integrate" what do you mean? Are you just trying to show it/hide it whilst something is running or are you trying to embed the bars themselves into your GUI window? (the latter isn't possible in any sane way right now). If you can explain a bit more I (or someone else here) can probably give you some guidance.

Hi Chris, are you by any chance using a version of MATLAB older than R2010a?

If so, you may still be able to get it to work by replacing the '~' with a real variable name, but bear in mind this hasn't been developed or tested on older releases.

Cheers. Ben

Hi,
On screen everything looks fine. However, when I try to print, the tick labels disappear, same as for Wolfgang. I'm running MATLAB 2011b (7.13.0.564) on Windows 7 (x64 version). All plot settings are at the default.

Other than that, great function!

Here's the test script that used:

%------------------
clear all
close all
clc

x = 1:0.2:2.8;
y = x.^2;
plot(x,y);
xlab = get(gca,'XTickLabel');
xlab = num2str(xlab);
set(gca,'XTickLabel',xlab);
xlabel('X axis label');
ylabel('Y axis label');
title('Plot title');
rotateXLabels(gca, 45)
set(gcf, 'PaperPositionMode', 'auto');
print('-dpng','plot.png');

Good benchmark for GPU's
