MATLAB: How to correct cluttered axes in the plot in Matlab GUI

Question

Before I plotted my scattering figure, the plot module in my GUI looked like this:

After I plot my data in the GUI with the code, it looks like this:

Could someone please tell me how to correct the cluttered X axis?

The code I used to plot this image is:

scatter(app.UIAxes,ppangle,aaangle,[ ],totalcounts,'filled')

colorbar(app.UIAxes)

xlabel(app.UIAxes,'\Phi')

ylabel(app.UIAxes,'\theta')

Answer 1

It looks like you've set the XTickMode (and possibly also XTickLabelMode) to manual.

This means that when you add new data to the axes, the existing tick values and labels are being preserved.

You need to set your XTickMode (and possible XTickLabelMode) back to auto, either in App Designer:

Or manually in your code:

xticks(app.UIAxes, 'auto');
xticklabels(app.UIAxes, 'auto');
