hText = xticklabel_rotate(XTick,rot,XTickLabel,varargin) Rotate XTickLabel
Syntax: xticklabel_rotate
Input:
{opt} XTick - vector array of XTick positions & values (numeric)
uses current XTick values or XTickLabel cell array by
default (if empty)
{opt} rot - angle of rotation in degrees, 90° by default
{opt} XTickLabel - cell array of label strings
{opt} [var] - "Property-value" pairs passed to text generator
ex: 'interpreter','none'
'Color','m','Fontweight','bold'
Output: hText - handle vector to text labels
Example 1: Rotate existing XTickLabels at their current position by 90°
xticklabel_rotate
Example 2: Rotate existing XTickLabels at their current position by 45° and change
font size
xticklabel_rotate([],45,[],'Fontsize',14)
Example 3: Set the positions of the XTicks and rotate them 90°
figure; plot([1960:2004],randn(45,1)); xlim([1960 2004]);
xticklabel_rotate([1960:2:2004]);
Example 4: Use text labels at XTick positions rotated 45° without tex interpreter
xticklabel_rotate(XTick,45,NameFields,'interpreter','none');
Example 5: Use text labels rotated 90° at current positions
xticklabel_rotate([],90,NameFields);
Note : you can not RE-RUN xticklabel_rotate on the same graph.
