I need to create graph where on X axis will be years from 2005 to 2016 and on Y axis will be another numbers.
If I use just simple number for example from 1 to 10 for X axis is working, but I need put years on X axis.

I use this example from web:

measles = [38556 24472 14556 18060 19549 8122 28541 7880 3283 4135 7953 1884]';
mumps = [20178 23536 34561 37395 36072 32237 18597 9408 6005 6268 8963 13882]';
chickenPox = [37140 32169 37533 39103 33244 23269 16737 5411 3435 6052 12825 23332]';

% Create a stacked bar chart using the bar function
figure
bar(1:12, [measles mumps chickenPox], 0.5, 'stack')

% Adjust the axis limits
axis([0 13 0 100000])
set(gca, 'XTick', 1:12)

% Add title and axis labels
title('Childhood diseases by month')
xlabel('Month')
ylabel('Cases (in thousands)')

% Add a legend
legend('Measles', 'Mumps', 'Chicken pox') 

But then I repleaced nummbers for X axis (how you can see below), nad now is not working.
Some advice in this issue for me?

% Create data for application of fertilizer in arable land
dusikate = [70147.6	84165.8	92217.6	73166.4	85068.2	90982.2	98787.2	110714.4 116029.5 111892.1]';

x = 2005:1:2016;

% Create a stacked bar chart using the bar function

bar(x,[dusikate fosforecne draselne], 0.8, 'stack')

% Adjust the axis limits
axis([50000 180000])
set(gca, 'XTick', x)
ax = gca; 
ax.YAxis.Exponent = 0;

% Add title and axis labels
title({'Celková spotreba draselných, fosforečných a dusíkatých hnojív (v tonách) na';'sledovanej výmere ornej pôdy na Slovensku v období rokov 2005/2006 - 2014/2015'})
xlabel('sezóna (hospodársky rok')
ylabel('spotreba hnojív v tonách [t]')

% Add a legend
legend('dusikaté', 'fosforečné', 'draselné')

@NG – you will need to adapt the code in my post. This should not be too difficult: all the components are there, it’s basically just switching between X-Y etc., so I am not going to spoon-feed the answer. If you cannot do this (or don’t have time), then contact me by email for a short consulting.

Y = [5 1 2; 8 3 7; 9 6 8; 5 5 5; 4 2 3];  % sample data from bar example...
Z=cumsum(Y,2);                            % bar cumulative heights for positioning
X=repmat([1:5].',1,3);                    % x locations for each Y
bar(Y,'stack')                            % base stacked bar
colormap(copper);                         % change color map
arrayfun(@(x,y,z) text(x,y,num2str(z), 'horizontalalign','center', 'verticalalign','top', 'color','w'), X,Z,Y);

% write the labels for each subset
sumTotals = sum(Y,2);
sumTotals = sumTotals(~isnan(sumTotals));
labels = arrayfun(@num2str,sumTotals,'uniform',false);
hText = text(1:size(Y,1), sumTotals, labels);
set(hText, 'VerticalAlignment','bottom', 'FontSize',8, 'Color','k');

So far, a smart solution is elusive; you can inspect Yair’s previous comment for a detailed analysis. In the meanwhile, you can try the old-school simple approach:

N = 15;
hAxes = axes('NextPlot','add');
facecolors = jet(N);
for i = N : -1 : 1
    hBar(i) = bar(i, 2*i, 'FaceColor',facecolors(i,:));
end

I have an application where I need to color the bars individually, and have tried to figure out how to get the handles of the underlying patches or graphical objects. I am doing this in HG2. Any ideas?

Thank you,
Mike

hBar = bar(...);
hBar.Face.StripData = [];
vi = [1:4:N*4; 2:4:N*4; 4:4:N*4; 3:4:N*4];
hBar.Face.VertexIndices = uint32(vi(:)');
hBar.Face.ColorBinding = 'discrete';
hBar.Face.ColorData = ... % 4xN uint8

or use try/catch

Thank you very much, Yair. Apparently I need to read more about the HG2 and use “if-s” in my code for compatibility.
