How to change Fontcolor xticks and yticks

How can I change the color for xticks and ytick fonts?

figure('Name','Fig. 7 Change of plate thickness value* in the range from 0.5mm to 0.7mm for Abet Monocore 3D FP.')

plot(FP_plate_thickness(:,1),FP_plate_thickness(:,2),FP_plate_thickness(:,1),FP_plate_thickness(:,3),FP_plate_thickness(:,1),FP_plate_thickness(:,4),...

xtickformat('%gmm')

ytickformat('%g%%')

xticks(0.5:0.1:0.7)

yticks (-6:6:6)

ylim([-6 6])

Assuming you just want to change the color of the x-tick and y-tick labels:

plot(1:10)

ax = gca();
ax.XAxis.TickLabelColor = 'r';
ax.YAxis.TickLabelColor = 'g';

Or if you want to change the color of each entire axis (including tick labels, tick marks, axis line, and grid lines):

plot(1:10)

ax = gca();
ax.XColor = 'r'; % or ax.XAxis.Color = 'r';
ax.YColor = 'g'; % or ax.YAxis.Color = 'g';

Here is a demo that shows you how to change just about everything on a plot:

% Demo to make a black graph with red Y axis, green X axis, and yellow grid.  Markers are magenta with green lines between them.
% Initialization steps:
clc;    % Clear the command window.
close all;  % Close all figures (except those of imtool.)
clearvars;
workspace;  % Make sure the workspace panel is showing.
format long g;
format compact;
fontSize = 24;
% Create sample data.
X = 1 : 20;
Y = rand(1, 20);
% Plot green lines between the markers.
plot(X, Y, 'g-', 'LineWidth', 3);
hold on;
% Plot magenta markers.
plot(X, Y, 'ms', 'LineWidth', 3, 'MarkerSize', 15);
grid on;
title('Y vs. X, Font Size 20, Blue', 'FontSize', 20, 'Color', 'b', 'FontWeight', 'bold');
% Make labels for the two axes.
xlabel('X Axis, Font Size 18, Green');
ylabel('Y axis, Font Size 24, Red');
yticks(0 : 0.2 : 1);
% Get handle to current axes.
ax = gca
% Now let's have fun changing all kinds of things!
% This sets background color to black.
ax.Color = 'k';
ax.YColor = 'r';
% Make the x axis dark green.
darkGreen = [0, 0.6, 0];
ax.XColor = darkGreen;
% Make the grid color yellow.
ax.GridColor = 'y';
ax.GridAlpha = 0.9; % Set's transparency of the grid.
% Set x and y font sizes.
ax.XAxis.FontSize = 18;
ax.YAxis.FontSize = 24;
% Make the axes tick marks and bounding box be really thick.
ax.LineWidth = 3;
% Let's have the tick marks go outside the graph instead of poking inwards
ax.TickDir = 'out';
% The below would set everything: title, x axis, y axis, and tick mark label font sizes.
% ax.FontSize = 34;
% Bold all labels.
ax.FontWeight = 'bold';
hold off
% Now do stuff with the figure, as opposed to the axes control that is ON the figure.
% Maximize the figure
g = gcf; % Get handle to the current figure.
g.WindowState = 'maximized'; % Make it full screen.
g.Name = 'Demo by Image Analyst'; % Put a custom string into the titlebar.
g.NumberTitle = 'off'; % Don't have it put "Figure 1" before the name.
g.MenuBar = 'figure'; % or 'none'
g.ToolBar = 'figure'; % or 'none'

Hi @Arkadiusz Charuk,

You can retrieve the X and Y tick-labels from the plot and customize them, such as changing font-colour, using LaTex.

Here’s the code for a typical plot in MATLAB.

% Plot y = e^x for x = 1:10
x = 1:10;
y = exp(x);
plot(x, y,'LineWidth',1.5)

% set (gcf,'position',[200,200,180,180]) % X pos, Y pos, X size, Y size
set (gca, 'FontSize',9,'FontName','Times New Roman') %Size font axis
grid on, 
set(gca,'colororder',parula(16)) % to avoid color repetition in plotting lines

xtickformat('%gmm')
ytickformat('%g%%')

Adding the following implementation customizes the font-color of the x-ticks to ‘green’:

% Get the current tick labels
ticklabels_x = get(gca,'XTickLabel');

% Prepend a color for each tick label
ticklabels_new_x = cell(size(ticklabels_x));
for i = 1:length(ticklabels_x)
    ticklabels_new_x{i} = ['\color{green} ' ticklabels_x{i}];
end

% Set the tick labels
set(gca, 'XTickLabel', ticklabels_new_x);

I would recommend you go through the following documentation link to learn more about setting Tick label interpreter for ‘Axes Properties’ in MATLAB: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/matlab.graphics.axis.axes-properties.html
