Question: How to I give a title and axes names to the graph generated by the XY Graph Block In Simulink

I am using Simulink for a certain co-simulation as a part of my project. The results to my work can be best explained through a bunch of XY Graphs generated in Simulink. The only downside is I am unable to change the axes names and the graph title as seen in the Graph Window. Is there a way to do this? It would greatly help me compile my results faster.

To add a title and axis labels to the graph generated by the XY Graph Block in Simulink, you can follow these steps:

  1. Enable the Toolbar: First, you need to enable the toolbar in the XY Graph window.

  2. Add Labels and Title: Use the toolbar to add axis labels and a title.

Here’s how you can do it:

Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Enable the Toolbar:

    • After running your simulation, select the XY Graph window.

    • In the MATLAB Command Window, run the following commands to enable the toolbar:

      matlab
      set(0,'ShowHiddenHandles','on');
      set(gcf,'menubar','figure');
      
  2. Add Axis Labels and Title:

    • With the toolbar enabled, you can now add axis labels and a title.

    • Go to the toolbar and select Insert > X Label and Insert > Y Label to add axis labels.

    • To add a title, go to Insert > Title.

Example Commands:

matlab
% Enable the toolbar
set(0,'ShowHiddenHandles','on');
set(gcf,'menubar','figure');

% Add axis labels and title
xlabel('X-Axis Name');
ylabel('Y-Axis Name');
title('Graph Title');

This will allow you to customize the XY Graph generated by Simulink with the desired titles and axis labels.
