Linking marker face color to colorbar

Hi

How do I link the face color of a marker to a colorbar? I have the following code so far:

plot(ones(length(cds_BD),1)*srs(1), v0_BD,'ks'), hold on

plot(ones(length(cds_GD),1)*srs(2), v0_GD,'ks')

plot(ones(length(cds_PRD),1)*srs(3), v0_PRD,'ks')

caxis([40 70]);

colorbar

Where "cds_**" and "srs" are defined arrays. Each entry in the matrix cds_** is linked to a initial velocity and I would like to color the marker's face with that color according to the colorbar.

Please help.

Thanks

Can you attach some data? Image?

Hi

Find below the data:

cds_BD = [1.1105 1.3124 1.0474 1.0978 1.0852 1.0474 1.0221 1.0347 1.1988];

cds_GD = [0.8256 0.9615 0.9406 0.7524 1.0660 0.7838 0.8256 0.9301 0.7733];

cds_PRD = [0.9761 0.9964 0.9862 1.0472 0.9659 1.0066 0.9252 0.9151 0.9354];

v0_BD = [58.5101 58.2125 58.4750 62.5083 62.4396 62.3959 67.1816 66.3405 66.7731];

v0_GD = [61.1054 61.5469 61.4117 63.8668 64.1549 64.4764 66.8466 67.5859 67.2018];

v0_PRD = [61.6887 62.5646 62.5521 66.3803 65.8711 65.7790 69.4217 68.7722 68.5662];

So what I essentially want is to give each marker's face a color according to a colormap for a range of velocities.

Try scatter

clc,clear

cds_BD = [1.1105    1.3124    1.0474    1.0978    1.0852    1.0474    1.0221    1.0347    1.1988];
cds_GD = [0.8256    0.9615    0.9406    0.7524    1.0660    0.7838    0.8256    0.9301    0.7733];
cds_PRD = [0.9761    0.9964    0.9862    1.0472    0.9659    1.0066    0.9252    0.9151    0.9354];
v0_BD = [58.5101   58.2125   58.4750   62.5083   62.4396   62.3959   67.1816   66.3405   66.7731];
v0_GD = [61.1054   61.5469   61.4117   63.8668   64.1549   64.4764   66.8466   67.5859   67.2018];
v0_PRD = [61.6887   62.5646   62.5521   66.3803   65.8711   65.7790   69.4217   68.7722   68.5662];

x0 = cds_BD*0;
h(1) = scatter(x0+1, v0_BD, [], cds_BD);
hold on
h(2) = scatter(x0+2, v0_BD, [], cds_GD);
h(3) = scatter(x0+3, v0_BD, [], cds_PRD);
hold off
set(h,'Marker','s')
set(h,'SizeData',50)
% caxis([40 70]);
colorbar
axis([0 4 55 70])

Use this option to fill markers

set(h,'MarkerFaceColor','flat')     % fill markers

Hi

It works perfectly, thanks so much darova!!
