How do I plot multiple individual y-values on a single x-value?

Good evening!

I´d like to plot multiple individual y-values on a single x-value. Something like the drawing I attached where every dot represents an individual value. X-axis should not represent any value, but rather it´s one variable with various categories. For example, x-axis should show gesture type, while y-axis individual frequencies of q particular gesture type.

Hi Dominika,

As of now, MATLAB plotting functions do not support. However, for your particular use case, you may try using 'subplot' function as follow.

in = {[1 2 3 4 8 9], [1 5 9], [4 6 8 9 12]}
titles = {'first','second','third'}

for i  = 1:length(in)
    subplot(1,length(in), i);
    scatter(ones(1,length(in{i})), in{i},'filled')
    set(gca,'XTick',[])
    xlabel(titles{i});
end

Is there a way to plot the same data on a single axis (i.e. make a single plot as opposed to three)?
