setting only the y axis scale of a plot

i want to set the scale of the y axis on a plot without setting the x, so that the scale of the x axis remains automatically determined.

i normally use the following axis([xmin xmax ymin ymax]) but of course that doesnt seem to work in this situation.

thanks in advance

You can use the ylim command, or use the YLim property if you have the axes handle.
