cannot modify plot axes as per documentation

According to web page documentation for signal processing, you can change the x- or y-axis plot units by right-clicking the mouse on the axis label or by right-clicking on the plot and selecting Analysis Parameters. However, when I right click the mouse anywhere on the plot, all I see is a menu box : copy display, pan, zoom in, zoom out. How can I set the proper axis settings to plot magnitude and phase? (on separate plots)

Hi,

Where exactly are you trying to change the units? Is it on any app? Can you please specify.

Can you post the exact URL for the documentation page that says you can change the plot units by right-clicking, so we can see exactly what it says? If you're using your locally installed documentation instead, can you tell us the list of breadcrumbs that lead you to that page? [By "breadcrumbs" I mean the list of page names in the Contents navigation pane. For example, on the plot function documentation page the breadcrumbs are "MATLAB", "Graphics", "2-D and 3-D Plots", and "Line Plots".]

Also, can you confirm that you're using release R2019b as the information on the right side of this post indicates? This can be critical if you're using the online documentation (which is for the most recent release, currently release R2019b) with an older release of MATLAB (which would not have all the functionality described in the online doc.)

I have not thought about this problem since I used command line code to make my plots. However, to answer your questions, I just googled ”change the x- or y-axis units by right-clicking the mouse”. One of the returns was:

You can change the x- or y-axis units by right-clicking the mouse on the axis label or by right-clicking on the plot and selecting Analysis Parameters. Available options for the axes units are as follows.”

When I bring up my Matlab software, MATLAB R2019b appears with the Matlab logo.

Signal processing is one of the toolkits I purchased.

Hi,

The changing of units of x- or y-axis units by right-clicking the mouse on the axis label or by right-clicking on the plot and selecting Analysis Parameters works perfectly for me on R2019b. Make sure you are doing this on FVTool.
