<br>
Not sure how to solve your problem completely, but I can give you a<br>
suggestion. The x-ticks labels are strings and not numbers. Even if you<br>
give numbers as you did, Scilab converts them to strings.<br>
<br>
So what you could do is:<br>
- get the handle of the axis. For example with h = gca()<br>
- get the tick data: v1 = h.x_ticks.data<br>
- convert this list into a string vector: for example v2 =<br>
string(datavec(v1))<br>
- and change h.x_ticks.labels = v2<br>
<br>
I have not tested this but I think it should give you ideas how to<br>
proceed. Note that the string vector has be the same length as the<br>
number of ticks which does not have to be . Creating the string vector<br>
from the serial dates and make it look nice could be a bit nasty.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>

Subject: [scilab-Users] plotting date on x-axis<br>
<br>
Hi everybody,<br>
<br>
I want to plot some timeseries where the x-ticks are dates (for example<br>
"Nov. 1987" or "1.11.87").<br>
That's where I am today...<br>
forum<br>
-------------<br>
dt = datenum(y, m, d); // y, m, d are vectors with information on<br>
year, month and day<br>
all = [dt, data1, data2, data3]; // data1-3 are<br>
data-vectors<br>
-------------<br>
<br>
till here I get:<br>
<br>
-------------<br>
all=<br>
724216. 6.6894479 6.6952958 0.20484<br>
724217. 7.8806429 8.1755199 0.21636<br>

724220. 9.3775043 12.343613 0.3197800<br>
724221. 9.3765812 12.939786 0.4009100<br>

724223. 9.1931381 13.444237 0.5119000<br>
724224. 9.0925598 13.484509 0.47847<br>
------------<br>
<br>
when I plot that ( plot(all(:,1), [all(:,2), all(:,3), all(:,4)]) ), I<br>
only get the serial dates (first column) on the x-axis.<br>
<br>
Do you, how I could go on? I guess I need something like what is<br>
datetick for matlab (found that expression on my research through the<br>
net).<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>
Simon<br>
