Hi Dirk.
Different exporting functions (For example "print", "exportgraphics", "saveas") in MATLAB might handle graphics objects differently when exporting figures. This could lead to differences in the appearance of the exported figure compared to the one displayed on the screen.
I don't have access to the specific platform to reproduce the issue. However, I suggest you try the following workaround:
The "saveas" function provides an alternative way to save your figure as an image file. You can try using this function to see if the text positioning is preserved correctly when using normalized units.
fh = figure;
ph = plot(1, 1);
th = text(0.5, 0.5, 'Test', 'units', 'normalized');
saveas(fh, 'test.png');
You can also try adjusting the text position after setting the normalized units by calling the "set" function on the "th" handle.
fh = figure;
ph = plot(1, 1);
th = text(0.5, 0.5, 'Test');
set(th, 'units', 'normalized', 'position', [0.5, 0.5]);
print('test.png', '-dpng');
exportgraphics(fh, 'test1.jpg');
