MATLAB: How to Uncover the Hidden Tick Covered by an Object

Question

The red rectangle covers the XTick at point 1 and that little black bar is not visible anymore (although it is visible for points -1 and 3 on x-axis). Is there any way to make it visible (for example by putting the Axes object in front of the rectangle)?

hAxss = axes( 'XLim', [-2 4])
R = rectangle('Position', [0 0 2 1], 'FaceColor', 'r')

You can set the axes property 'layer' to 'top'; https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/axes-properties.html#property_Layer
