Livescripts: Usage linkaxes for several figures

Within a normal m-file I am able to link axes of different figures with linkaxes. The same command is not working within a livescript. Does anyone know how to do it?

The live script uses the same axes for each plot unless you specifically tell it to create a new figure. So likely what is happening is that, rather than 3 separate figures, each plot is replacing the previous plot.

Try adding a figure command before creating each successive plot

% First plot
x1 = linspace(0,6);
y1 = sin(x1);
plot(x1,y1)
ax1 = gca;

% Second plot
figure
x2 = linspace(0,10);
y2 = 2*sin(2*x2);
plot(x2,y2)
ax2 = gca;

% Third plot
figure
x3 = linspace(0,12,200);
y3 = 4*sin(6*x3);
plot(x3,y3)
ax3 = gca;

linkaxes([ax1 ax2 ax3],'xy')

This links the axis when executing but when afterwards I want to analyze the plot ax1 and zoom in, ax2 and ax3 axis gets not syncronized. This would be beneficial, when e.g. ax1 is the output of a model and ax2+ax3 shows the inputs. With a synchronized behaviour analyzing results would be much easier.

Ah, got it. I'm definitly not the definitive expert on this, but based on how figures work in a live script, I'm not sure that is currently possible.
