Hi,
I want to shift the x-axis from the bottom to the top of a figure using the command line. I know how to do it by using the plot tools. I would like to know how to do it via the command line. Thanks

Just a follow up question, is it possible to create two copies of the x-axis, one positioned at the bottom and the other positioned at the top?

Probably the easiest way to plot two axes is with the plotyy() function. For example:
figure
[ax,h1,h2] = plotyy(1:10,1:10,1:10,2:11);
set(ax(1),'XAxisLocation','top')
set(ax(2),'XAxisLocation','bottom')
If you don't have two set of data to plot, you use "NaN" in place of the second pair of x-y data.
[If you have more detailed questions, you might want to start another thread, so it doesn't get lost in the comments. I think people tend to ignore questions that have accepted answers.]
