Thread Subject: Axes position

Hello all,

I would like to add a logo on a plot.
I don't want it to move away when I zoom or pan, so I put it into a dedicated axes object that will stand still.
I want that axes object to stick to the top-right corner of my plot so I set it's position property, based on the plot axes position, with something like that:
p1 = get(hAxes1,'position');
set(hAxes2,'position',[p1(1)+p1(3)-width p1(2)+p1(4)-height width height]);

After that I hope the top-right corners of the plot boxes will be exactly superimposed.

But they are not: the plot axes (hAxes1) has been set with "axis equal", so its position property does not reflect the actual position of its plot box.

Do anyone know how I still can get the "real" position of that plot box without abandoning the "axis equal" setting ?

Thanks a lot in advance.

even I do have a similar question...All I need is the output of vision.videoplayer, how can I insert onto GUI axes i've created, any idea?

I think you're getting things mixed up.
Setting axes equal has no effect on the position property of gca.
Try this:
clf
get(gca,'Position')
set(gca,...
   'DataAspectRatio',[1 1 1])
get(gca,'Position')

But maybe you're doing something different?
