While jonas' answer worked for the simple example provided with the original question, it does unfortunately not work in the more complex version which I have attached here. The main script is "plot_with_multiple_scales", Jonas' command is included in scaled_axes2.
Autoarrange title and top xlabel on plot

Hello, I have a plot with an extra x-axes on the top (including ticks, numbers, label).
However, the position of this top xlabel is either outside of the plot window (in case of a small window size) or conflicts with title of the plot (bigger window).
Is there a way to "auto-arrange" the position of these text elements, so that independent from window size, title, top xlabel and x-numbers are always visible?
Below you find a simple code example and also a picture, where the "conflict" is even more noticeable.
plot(0,0)
xlabel('time [s]')
primary_axis = gca;
secondary_axis = axes('Position',primary_axis.Position,'XAxisLocation','top','YAxisLocation','right','Color','none'); % secondary_axis = new active axes (top + right)
xlabel('time [h]')
title('example')
Thank you very much, Dan

Well, you have to add the title to the axes with an xaxis on top
Add these two lines in your function
title('Title');
primary_axis.Position=secondary_axis.Position
at the location right above this line
axes(primary_axis);
I have adjusted your script, please have a look. As a rule of thumb, output your axes handles if you create them in a loop. Makes it easier to adjust things at the end of the script.

Sure, omit the position argument when you create the secondary axes and then add this at the end of the script
primary_axis.Position=secondary_axis.Position
When you define the position explicitly, then the ActivePositionProperty property of the axes goes from 'outer position' to 'position', and it does not adjust the position when adding title. You want to maintain 'outerposition' until you've added everything, then you can simple align the two axes.

try this one, maybe it helps, this answer is not automated set, but the title will display without overlapping
title({'First line';'';' '})
