MATLAB: How to modify a time series plot

dataMATLABplotplottingtime series

I have created a time series plot. My x axis shows the dates that correspond with each point as intended, however, it is only showing four dates. For this particular data file, there are 17 dates. Is there a way to change the way the date values show up?

See Datetimeruler-properties

You can set the tick locations and formatting as desired; you'll may have to rotate to get enough room for as much as you're wanting to show to be legible; dates/times take up a lot of real estate.

Yeyy! I solved it...following is the code...if somebody need it...

function main
A = regexp(fileread('datap.dat'),'\n','split');
Whichline = find(~cellfun('isempty',...
    strfind(A,'TS 0  ')))
 
 gage5 = [];
 gage10 = [];
 gage13 = [];
 gage19 = [];
 TS_sec = [];
 
 idx=[Whichline];
 n = length(idx);
 
 for i = 1:n
 TimeStp = regexp(A{idx(i)},' ','split');
 TS_sec = [TS_sec; TimeStp{4}];
 
 gage5 = [gage5; A{idx(i)+5}];
 gage10 = [gage10; A{idx(i)+10}];
 gage13 = [gage13; A{idx(i)+13}]; 
 gage19 = [gage19; A{idx(i)+19}]; 
 end
 gage5_m= str2num(gage5);
 gage10_m= str2num(gage10);
 gage13_m= str2num(gage13);
 gage19_m= str2num(gage19);
 T_sec= str2num(TS_sec); 
 
%1st Option
gtable = table(T_sec, gage5_m, gage10_m, gage13_m, gage19_m);
writetable(gtable,'gtable.dat','WriteVariableNames',true);
 write_files('Sroy.dat', T_sec, gage5_m, gage10_m, gage13_m, gage19_m);
end
function write_files(fname, T_sec, gage5_m, gage10_m, gage13_m, gage19_m)
fid = fopen(fname, 'w');
fprintf('%f %f %f %f %f\n',[T_sec gage5_m gage10_m gage13_m gage19_m]');
fprintf(fid,'%f %f %f %f %f\n',[T_sec gage5_m gage10_m gage13_m gage19_m]');    
fclose(fid);
end
