Hi All, I want to insert table and a plot to the same figure. The table is 2X3 (the first row is header - strings, and

the second row is numbers). I can read the table from excel file or from 2 variables (header & values).

How can I do this?

Thanks :) Noga

You'll want to use uitable. Here's a very simple example:

subplot(2,1,1);

plot(1:10);

uitable('Data', [1 2 3], 'ColumnName', {'A', 'B', 'C'}, 'Position', [20 20 500 150

]);

Thanks for this post! It was really helpful! I ended up modifying the code above, and I wanted

to share my own implementation:

f = figure(1);

set(f,'Position',[500 500 300 150]);

dat = {' a', 1, ' units';...

' b', 2, ' units';...

' c', 3, ' units';...

' d', 4, ' units';...

' e', 5, ' units';...

' f', 6, ' units';};

columnname = {'Parameter', 'Value', 'Units'};

columnformat = {'char', 'numeric', 'char'};

t = uitable('Units','normalized','Position',...

[0.05 0.05 0.755 0.87], 'Data', dat,...

'ColumnName', columnname,...

'ColumnFormat', columnformat,...

'RowName',[]);
