Hello,
Another question..
I created a barplot with the command
bar(Duration)
with Duration being a 6x3 matrix. Because the matrix has 6 rows, my stacked bars are called 1, 2, 3, ...6.
I want to change this to the name of 6 muscles. I used axis({names2}), with names2 being a cellary containing the 6 muscle names.
This doesn't work because matlab doens't recognize the cellary while it's in my workspace.
Anyone who can tell me what would be right input?
Thank you!

If you get an error message, please post it completely. Why do you assume that the axis command is useful to set the names?

This is the code:
bar(Duration);
axis(names2);
ylabel('Percentage of stance phase');
title('Duration of muscle activity during stance');
Matlab gives me this error:
Error using message In 'MATLAB:axis:UnknownOption', data type supplied is incorrect for parameter {1}.
Error in axis (line 176) error(message('MATLAB:axis:UnknownOption', cur_arg));
