MATLAB: How to put a preview figure window in a main figure window

one figure in another as a previewplotpreview figuresame figure windowsmall figure window in existing figure window

I have a code that gives me the plot of my data. I want to put the same plot figure as a preview in top left corner of the same plot figure window. My code is below:


x=0.01*rand(100,1);
[~,edges] = histcounts(log10(x));
 histogram(x,10.^edges)
 set(gca, 'xscale','log')

Best Answer

You can create a second smaller axes

x=0.01*rand(100,1);
ax1 = axes();
[~,edges] = histcounts(log10(x));
histogram(x,10.^edges)
set(gca, 'xscale','log')
ax2 = axes('Position', [0.05 0.75 0.2 0.2], 'XScale', 'log', 'Box', 'on');
copyobj(ax1.Children, ax2);
