MATLAB: Different colors for axes tick label and axes ticks

axes labelquivertick labelstick marks

Is there a way to set the tick marks and axis lines as white but keep the tick labels as black. I'm using the quiverc function from the the Matlab file exchange which automatically set the axes as white and the axes and figure backgrounds as black but I'd like to keep the tick labels as black also.

Thanks

Not unless it can be done at the java level.

You might want to look at the File Exchange contribution plt() which is more configurable.

"How do I cange the Xticklabels of a plot using figure handles?"

Get the axis handle from the figure handle.

ax = gca(figureHandle);

Get the XAxis handle from the axis handle and set the FontSize of the x-axis only.

ax.XAxis.FontSize = 16;

or set the fontsize of the entire axis (x & y)

ax.FontSize = 14;

Set the XTick and XTick labels

ax.XTick = 1:4; 
ax.XTickLabel = {'A' 'B' 'C' 'D'};

figure (9)
ax1 = gca;
hl1 = line(x1,y1,'Color','r');
set(ax1,'XColor','r','YColor','r')
ax2 = axes('Position',get(ax1,'Position'),'XAxisLocation','top',... 
  'YAxisLocation','right','Color','none','XColor','k','YColor','k'); 
hl2 = line(x2,y2,'Color','k','Parent',ax2);
ylabel(ax1,'Drag Force (lbf.)')% do the same with ax2 
xlabel(ax1,'Time (s)')
