I have existing 2x1 grid subplots and would like to pair 2x1 subplots 2 of these plots side-by-side so it becomes a single 2x2 subplot. How can I do this and carry over each respective axes labels, titles, and legends to the new plot?

Chris - can you provide a sample of the code that produces the 2x1 subplots? Also, can you provide an image of what the result is now versus what you would like to achieve?

If you don't have the code to reproduce the original figures (or if you simply prefer not to), you can use copyobj to copy the axes from one axis to another, and then simply change the position of those axes to match your desired subplot arrangement. In this example, I use a set of subplot axes ( h3.ax) as a template for the new positions of the copied axes ( h3.ax2).

% Your original figures
h1.fig = figure;
h1.ax(1) = subplot(2,1,1);
plot(rand(100,2), 'x');
h1.ax(2) = subplot(2,1,2);
plot(rand(100,2), 'o');
h2.fig = figure;
h2.ax(1) = subplot(2,1,1);
plot(rand(100,2), '+');
h2.ax(2) = subplot(2,1,2);
plot(rand(100,2), '.');
% The new one
h3.fig = figure;
h3.ax = gobjects(2);
for ii = 1:4
    h3.ax(ii) = subplot(2,2,ii);
end
h3.ax = h3.ax';
h3.ax2 = gobjects(size(h3.ax));
h3.ax2(1,1) = copyobj(h1.ax(1), h3.fig);
h3.ax2(2,1) = copyobj(h1.ax(2), h3.fig);
h3.ax2(1,2) = copyobj(h2.ax(1), h3.fig);
h3.ax2(2,2) = copyobj(h2.ax(2), h3.fig);
for ii = 1:4
    h3.ax2(ii).Position = h3.ax(ii).Position;
end
delete(h3.ax);

One way is to use getframe() and then plot the 2 frames as images side-by-side. Of course you will not be able to further edit them as figures.

You can initialise

spno = 1; % current subplot number

and then replace your 4 subplot commands with

subplot(2,2, spno), spno = spno + 1;

Hi thanks.

Could you be a bit more specific from loading in a .fig file that was already organized as a 2x1 subplot to the shuffling for each subplot into a new 2x2 subplot? Thanks in advance
