show baseline value on y-axis

I have created a bar graph with a baseline. How do I get the value of the baseline to show on the y-axis?

Can you show a picture example of what are you trying to do?

If there isn't a tick at the baseline value, two choices-- following assumes have saved the necessary handles; hAx for axes object and hB for the bar plot.

• set and additional tick mark at that point--

ytk=hAx.YTick;                  % retrieve present tick marks
ytk=sort[hB(1).BaseValue ytk];  % add the base value and reorder
hAx.YTick=ytk;                  % and reset to new set

• use text to write a label at the desired location; this is more heuristic in that have to find the right x location to make the text align properly with the other labels but is conceptually not difficult although also have to write the numeric baseline value as string. Consequently, I'd suggest the former.
