I am unable to find a method to group different MATLAB plots in a single panel with many tabs (similar to internet browser tabs) for better organization. How can I resolve it?

There are 2 ways to resolve this issue that you can utilize:
1. You can use the “uitab” function in MATLAB which helps to create tabbed panels.
Below is an example snippet for using “uitab” for making plots in different panels:
% Create a figure to hold the tabbed panel
fig = figure();
% Create a tab group
tabGroup = uitabgroup(fig);
% Create multiple tabs and add plots to each tab
for i = 1:4
% example 4 is numberOfTabs
% Create a new tab
tab = uitab(tabGroup, 'Title', ['Tab ' num2str(i)]);
% Create a subplot within the tab
subplot('Position', [0.1 0.1 0.8 0.8], 'Parent', tab);
% Plot your data
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
y = [10, 8, 6, 4, 2];
plot(x, y);
% Customize the plot as needed
title(['Plot ' num2str(i)]);
xlabel('X');
ylabel('Y');
end
Please refer to the below attached MATLAB documentation for more information about the “uitab” function:https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022b/matlab/ref/uitab.html?searchHighlight=uitab&s_tid=doc_srchtitle
2. Another way to organize plots in a single panel but without having different tabs is by using “tiledlayout” function to create multiple axes in a figure. You can have different number of rows and different number of columns. And the plots can be plotted one-by-one by using “nexttile” function.
Please refer to the below attached MATLAB documentation for “Combine Multiple Plots”:https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022b/matlab/creating_plots/combine-multiple-plots.html
