MATLAB does not have any built-in functionality for centering the coordinate axes around the origin. This tool is a first fix for solving this. An example script is included showing how to use the function.
Tested on MATLAB 2007b. Works fine, as long as the figure is not resized after the function is called.

Version Published Release Notes
1.2.0.0

Fixed bug related to axes in 'Normalized' 'Units'.
1.1.0.0

Changed the x axis and y axis tick labeling so that it now includes also the end points. As a consequence, the axes are now 10% longer in order to make room for the arrowheads.
