Please post what code you are using. Axes are white by default, with black text. Do you mean you are making the grid lines white? If so when I do this everything else remains unchanged, so I'm not really sure what settings you are changing.

@adam I mean the axes line

Does this help:

y = sin([1:40]/10);
plot(y, 'm*-');
grid on;
ax = gca % Get handle to current axes.
ax.XColor = 'r'; % Red
ax.YColor = 'b'; % Blue
ax.GridAlpha = 0.9;  % Make grid lines less transparent.
ax.GridColor = [0.1, 0.7, 0.2]; % Dark Green.

Create 2 axes: 1 for the lables and another on top for the grid:

Axes1H = axes('NextPlot', 'add');
Axes1H = axes('NextPlot', 'add', 'YTickLabel', {}, 'XTickLabel', {}, ...
              'XColor', [1,1,1], 'YColor', [1,1,1], ...
              'Color', [0.5, 0.5, 0.5], ...
              'Box', 'on', 'XGrid', 'on', 'YGrid', 'on');

As I said in my Answer, leave off the semicolon when you call Axes1H. Then you'll get a partial list of properties you can change. Click the Show All Properties link to see a list of all of them. There are lots of things there you can change including the colors and sizes of axes and tick marks.

Can someone explain how this works with a generic plot? For example

Axes1H = axes('NextPlot', 'add');
Axes1H = axes('NextPlot', 'add', 'YTickLabel', {}, 'XTickLabel', {}, ...
              'XColor', [1,1,1], 'YColor', [1,1,1], ...
              'Color', [0.5, 0.5, 0.5], ...
               'Box', 'on', 'XGrid', 'on', 'YGrid', 'on');
plot(1:10,2:11)

and

plot(1:10,2:11)
Axes1H = axes('NextPlot', 'add');
Axes1H = axes('NextPlot', 'add', 'YTickLabel', {}, 'XTickLabel', {}, ...
              'XColor', [1,1,1], 'YColor', [1,1,1], ...
              'Color', [0.5, 0.5, 0.5], ...
               'Box', 'on', 'XGrid', 'on', 'YGrid', 'on');

give strange figures.

Do this right after you plot something.

ax = gca % Don't use a semicolon.

Then, in the command window, click the link to show all properties. There you can see how you can change virtually anything.

I know that one, but the problem is when I change fore example the 'XColor' which is the axis color on X side to white, the font of XTickLabel will change to white too. How to maintain the black font color but only change the axis color
