I have a gridded figure with 2 "game boards" , but they don't look the same

I have the following code to plot a figure with 2 game boards, for a battleship game:

subplot( 2, 1, 1 );

set( gca, 'XTickLabel', '', 'YTickLabel', '', 'BoxStyle', 'full' );

title( 'Computer Board' );

axis square

subplot( 2, 1, 2 );

axis square

set( gca, 'XTickLabel', '', 'YTickLabel', '', 'BoxStyle', 'full' );

title( 'Your Board' );

But the board appears as in the attached picture, so how can i make them both look the same, also how can i make both a bit bigger.

Maybe try calling xlim and ylim after you call axis on each. Like maybe

xlim([0.5, 6.5]);
ylim([0.5, 6.5]);

or

xlim([1 6]);
ylim([1 6]);

i Tried that:

subplot( 2, 1, 1 );

set( gca, 'XTickLabel', '', 'YTickLabel', '', 'BoxStyle', 'full' );

title( 'Computer Board' );

axis square

xlim([0.5, 6.5]);

ylim([0.5, 6.5]);

subplot( 2, 1, 2 );

axis square

xlim([0.5, 6.5]);

ylim([0.5, 6.5]);

set( gca, 'XTickLabel', '', 'YTickLabel', '', 'BoxStyle', 'full' );

title( 'Your Board' );

But that then messes them both up, the user's board was fine and i just want to make the computer's board like the user's board (your board)

After subplot(), make sure the funtion calls are all in the same order.

@Image Analyst Ok i got it to work with:

subplot( 2, 1, 1 );

set( gca, 'XTickLabel', '', 'YTickLabel', '', 'BoxStyle', 'full' );

title( 'Computer Board' );

axis square

xlim([1, 7]);

ylim([0, 6]);

subplot( 2, 1, 2 );

set( gca, 'XTickLabel', '', 'YTickLabel', '', 'BoxStyle', 'full' );

title( 'Your Board' );

axis square

But how can i make the "boards" a bit bigger, because now they are a bit small.

ax = gca;
ax.Units = 'normalized';
ax.Position = [xLeft, yTop, width, height];

Set all values in the range 0 to 1.
