Consider the following example:
clear all x = (0:23).';n = numel(x);time = cellstr(datestr([ones(n,1)*[2012 3 10] x zeros(n,2)],'HH:MM'));Data = rand(1,24);plot(x,Data);set(gca,'XTick',0:23);set(gca,'XTickLabel',time);
Here, I can plot the change in a certain variable as a function of time (in hours). Is there a method for only showing every other hour in the x axis i.e. still show all of the data but with the ticks showing 00:00 02:00 04:00…etc.
I have tried:
set(gca,'XTick',0:2:23);
but to no avail. Any advice would be appreciated.
