How to plot more lines of xtick label

xtick label in figure above is some imformation of a satellite with function 'text';

however it's difficult to adjust position 2nd, 3rd,and so on lines of xticklabel using function 'text';

so is there anyway to add multiple lines of xtick label without function 'text'?

Hi,

Have you tried this function from FEX?

my_xticklabels

Thank you very much !

I also am using this function, and it works quite well. You may need to use mat2cell to set up the xTicks properly which is passed as an arg as I needed to do, but it is do-able. Thank you for this function.

Your welcome! :)

Try this:

xtick = get(gca,'XTick');

row1 = compose('%3.1f',lat(xtick));

row2 = compose('%3.1f',lon(xtick));

labelArray = [row1; row2];

tickLabels = strtrim(sprintf('%s\\newline%s\n', labelArray{:}));

set(gca,'XTickLabel',tickLabels);

xlabel('Latitude/Longitude (deg)')
