Cannot set axes limits

Hi, I am working with GUI interface. I want to set ,y own xlimits and ylimits. But I cannot do it:

figure('name','MomentFinder')

axes('OuterPosition',[0,0.2,1,0.8],'XLim',[-2 50],'YLim',[-2 35],'XLimMode','manual', 'YLimMode','manual');

plot(gca,file,vel1,'-',file,vel2,'-');

Matlab plot's vel1(file) in it's own limits. And I want the limits to be static. What is wrong?

Thanks

Set the limits after you issue the plot() command.

Yea, thanks/

Perhaps using "hold on" in between axes() and plot() would do it, but I prefer doing what Jose-Luis said.
