MATLAB: Error while using colorbar command in MATLAB 2020a on Windows 10!

colorbarMATLABmatlab2020a

[X,Y] = meshgrid(1:0.5:10,1:20);
Z = sin(X) + cos(Y);
C = X.*Y;
surf(X,Y,Z,C)
colorbar

If I run the following code, then I am getting the following errors.

Error using flip

Too many input arguments.

Error in flipud (line 14)

x = flip(x,1);

Error in matlab.graphics.shape.internal.AxesLayoutManager/insertAboveAxes

Error in matlab.graphics.shape.internal.AxesLayoutManager.getManager

Error in legendcolorbarlayout (line 27)

hManager = matlab.graphics.shape.internal.AxesLayoutManager.getManager(hAx);

Error in matlab.graphics.illustration.ColorBar/setAxesImpl

Error in matlab.graphics.illustration.ColorBar/set.Axes_I

Error in matlab.graphics.illustration.ColorBar/set.Axes

Error in colorbar (line 238)

cbar.Axes = peeraxes;

Basically colorbar command is giving the error.

Please help. Thanks a lot in advance.

which -all flip

is likely to indicate that you have your own function or a third party function by that name instead of the built-in function

More likely than not you've written or downloaded your own flip.m that does not accept the same number of inputs as the built-in flip function. To check this, look at how many versions of flip are on the path.

which -all flip

Leave ones in directories under matlabroot alone. Rename or remove the others.

MATLAB: How to reposition the colorbar to not overlap the x-axis label

To ensure that overlap of the x-axis label and the colorbar does not occur, you can modify the position of the axes in the figure and the position of the colorbar. For example:

%Create Plot as before
plot(1:10);
xlabel('\Omega_m');
ylabel('H_0');
ax = gca;
hbar = colorbar('horiz');
xlabel(hbar,'\Omega_c h^2');
% Modify Colorbar to a manual setting
set(hbar,'location','manual','ActivePositionProperty','OuterPosition')
% Reset the outerposition of the colorbar to be normalized from figure
hbarPos = get(hbar,'OuterPosition');
set(hbar,'OuterPosition',[0 0 1 hbarPos(4)])
% What are the axes positions and margin info
axPos = get(ax,'Position');
axMargin = get(ax,'TightInset');
% Calculate and set new position of axes to accomodate colorbar and margins
newAxPos = [axPos(1),hbarPos(4)+axMargin(2),...
axPos(3), axPos(4)+axPos(2)-hbarPos(4)-axMargin(2)-axMargin(4)];
set(ax,'ActivePositionProperty','Position','Position',newAxPos)
