Help with patch

Hello, i need your help to understand how patch works. I have made a 2D plot in matlab and i would like to add some patches to it. I use the following commands
xpatch=[340.04 340.07;340.04 340.07]; % create x axis patch area
ypatch=[0 1600;0 1600]; % create y axis patch area
patch(xpatch,ypatch,'r');
my problem is that even if the patch object has been created in the plot brower of the figure window, it isn't visible in my figure. I would appreciate any help
Thank you

Do not use 2D arrays for the patch coordinates: patch() wants vector lists of coordinates for each patch.
xpatch = [340.04 340.07 340.07 340.04 340.04];
ypatch = [0 0 1600 1600 0];
patch(xpatch,ypatch,'r')
The point order is important here, as are the seeming duplications.

The fifth elements in xpatch and ypatch aren't needed.
The reason for the point order is that you must give the points in the order you are traversing the patch, e.g, [xpatch(1) ypatch(1)] to [xpatch(2) ypatch(2)] ...
I prefer not to count upon patch() automatically closing the patch.
Thanks a lot for the help, it worked fine when i created the same plot from the beginning

Thanks for your answers, i have made the proposed alterations but i still get the same result, as can be seen in the following image

It works for me. Make sure you use the hold on command before trying to pot anything else on top.
