Hi, I do a subplot(2,2,…) with pcolor on each subplot and a colorbar for the plots on the right side. This subplot is repeated t times and an avi movie done with it. Unfortunately, for each new iteration the axes of the right side subplots and the colorbars shrink. If I remove the colorbar everything goes fine. This happens with Matlab 2011a. Workarounds for other axes shrinking bugs did not work and these were solved for previous releases. Thanks

cb = colorbar; set(cb,'position',[.15 .1 .1 .3])where the position arguments are [xposition yposition width height].
After adding the colorbar, change its position property. You can use the positions of the other axes to align the colorbar as needed.
Here's a demo (works with subplot or tiledlayout).
figure()ax = gobjects(1,4);ax(1) = subplot(2,2,1); title('Axis 1')ax(2) = subplot(2,2,2); title('Axis 2')ax(3) = subplot(2,2,3); title('Axis 3')% add colorbar to axis 2
cb = colorbar(ax(2),'orientation','horizontal','Location','SouthOutside');% Reposition the colorbar using the y-position of axis 3.
cb.Position(2) = ax(3).Position(2); % ax(3) is on the bottom row
