How can I change the position of subplots ?

I want to change the size and position of subplots I wrote this code: figure(1) set(gcf,... 'MenuBar' , 'none',... %No menubar on the GUI figure 'Position' , [300 100 540 540]); %Setting position and size of GUI figure subplot(2,2,1) subplot(2,2,2); subplot(2,2,3); subplot(2,2,4); h=subplot(2,2,1); hold on set(h , 'position' , [10 20 10 20]); hold off

The only thing that happens its that the subplot 2,2,1 disappears. Please help me

Be careful what your units are

get(gcf, 'units');

Also, if any plot would overlap another one, the one underneath (I think) disappears.

I modified set(h , 'position' , [10 500 10 20]);. Therefore subplot 2,2,1 would just get smaller in the same upper left hand area and still does not work

No. You're thinking images, where the origin in on the top line. With plots, the origin is in the bottom left so you placed this plot under the lower left plot.
