In an attempt to change the x-axis format on a histogram (placed on a Axes object) from engineering format to just a number I have read that this can be done by using the "XTick" property of the axes.
I have images that have a greyscale upto 20500 and when I let matlab automatically control these it reverts to engineering mode. I only need 5 ticks and so was wondering how to use the following to change the ticks. They are by default set at 0, 0.2,0.4,0.6,1
XTck=get(handles.axes6,'XTick')
What i need is a way to take the current max value (20500) in this case and then work out the nearest multiple of 5 (that is larger than this value), and then modify the ticks by this.
e.g. in the above, if I made the max value 25000, then each one of my ticks will be 5000, so I could presumably change my ticks now by:
set(handles.axes6,'XTick', XTck*500) ??
Thanks for any comments Jason

Jason, this should do:
t = 0:4700;
y = rand(1,length(t)); % your data
t_lim = 1e3*ceil(t(end)/1e3); % get axis limit: 5000
t_ax = 0:t_lim;
n_int = 8; % define # of intervals
t_int = t_lim/n_int;
tt = t_ax(rem(t_ax,t_int)==0); % find tick locations
ttlab = num2cell(tt); % and generate tick labels
plot(t,y)
set(gca,'XTick', tt, 'XTickLabel', ttlab)
assuming that your axis limits are 1000s. If you don't even know the order of magnitude of data points a priori (e.g., there are only 5 data points) then you need some more logic (such as a log10() ) to get the scaling factor, which is currently set to 1e3=1000.

Many thanks for your help Mischa. the only problem I have is that my data is variable and so I cannot fix the t=25000. sometimes the max data may be 4700 in which case t=5000. Can finding this "t" value be automated.

See extended code above.

For anyone else, if you use an axes to display the data on using GUIDE, then change the last line to:
set(handles.axes1,'XTick', tt,'XTickLabel',ttlab);
where in my case, my graph is drawn on axes1.

Maybe you need XtickLabel property
