how to draw a 2d stacked plot

Hello everyone

I have 3 parameters

t(s),sliprate(m/s),y(km)

now I want to have a stacked plot for sliprates against time that is the same for all.Each sliprate should be ploted at its y position.

I used the following code

t=time(:,1); %10000*1 
y=alongstrike(1,:); %1*41 (-100:5:100)
hold all
for i=1:41
    plot(time(:,i),sliprate(:,i)+alongstrike(1,i)) %sliprate is 10000*41
end

my problem is that I can't see the sliprate movement,its so small.they should all look like real waves. I attached my figure .Can you tell me what could get fixed

I can barely see any variation, even when I enlarge the image.

One option is simply to amplify them, perhaps by 100, and note that in the information about the plot:

plot(time(:,i),sliprate(:,i)+alongstrike(1,i) * 100) %sliprate is 10000*41

Thank you for your time

but there should be ,if I draw in 3d it looks like this attached file.I used the exact same data.

Sorry,you are right,if I multiple my 'sliprate' data by 100 the vibration will be vivid. but now my y axis wont be between -100 and 100, and how can I add an scale to my plot.

Too many question,sorry for that,but I really appreciate your help

My pleasure.

No worries!

the ‘test3d.jpg’ image looks like a plot3 (link) or a ribbon (link) plot. Experiment with them. You will likely get the result you want. You may have to modify the width property of the ribbon plot to get a result similar to that image.
