One common Y-axis label for two or more plots

Hello,

How can I get just one Y-Axis Label to span two or more plots? That is, center the Y-axis label between the plots in the rows?

Here is my code:

FigH     = figure;
subplot(2,1,1);  subplot(2,1,2);
AxesH    = findobj(FigH, 'Type', 'Axes');
YLabelHC = get(AxesH, 'YLabel');
YLabelH  = [YLabelHC{:}];
set(YLabelH, 'String', 'Y-label')
TitleHC  = get(AxesH, 'Title');
TitleH   = [TitleHC{:}];
set(TitleH, 'String', 'The title');

I would propose you to get the Handle of the subplots and then work with that.

Sample code

FigH     = figure;
SP1H = subplot(2,1,1);
SP2H = subplot(2,1,2);
YLabel1H = get(SP1H,'YLabel');
set(YLabel1H,'String','YLabelThatIWant');
set(YLabel1H,'Position',[-0.0542 0 0]);
Title1H = get(SP1H,'Title');
set(Title1H,'String','TheTitleThatIWant');
