Make x axis values not overlapping

Goodafternoon,
I'm plottin some values with bar() and I have the x values that overlaps. I was wondering if there was a way to have the values on the x axis shifted among them so to not touch each other.
I'll try to make an example here after:
------------------------------------------------------------------- this is xaxis
5 7 9 11
6 8 10
thanks a lot
Anita

You can make this kind of (multi-row) labelling work by relying on the TeX interpreter. Note this answer is a total rip-off of the answer here (not the accepted answer, but the one from Adam Danz).
plot(1:6)
row1 = {'1' '' '3' '' '5' ''};
row2 = {'' '2' '' '4' '' '6'};
labelArray = [row1; row2];
tickLabels = sprintf('%s\\newline%s\n', labelArray{:});
xlim([1 6])
xticks(1:6)
xticklabels(tickLabels)
