Color background between two ylines patch (datetime)

8 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have a plot with heartrate over time, using a datetime function. In addition I have two ylines (y=60 and y=100). Now I want to color the area (background) between those y-lines, for my whole timeline using datetime. The function patch does not work, as it cannot deal with datetime functions. How can I do this?

Lieke - can you provide a screen shot of what you have and what you want coloured in? I don't understand how the datetime function is an issue since you just want to color the area between those y-lines. Aren't the y-lines just y=60 and y=100?

The error is:
Error using patch
Non-numeric data is not supported in 'patch'
So you can’t use it with datetime objects.
If you want a single vertical line, just use plot:
datetime1=datetime('18-Aug-2017 22:56:00');
datetime2=datetime('18-Aug-2017 23:56:00');
figure
plot([datetime1 datetime1],[50 100],'red')
ylim([40 150])
set(gca, 'XTickLabelRotation',45)
Experiment to get the result you want.

I want to color the space between y=60 and y=100
datetime1=18-Aug-2017 22:56:00
datetime2=18-Aug-2017 23:56:00
This is what I wanted to do:
patch([datetime1 datetime2 datetime2 datetime1],[50 50 100 100],'red')
It also doesn't work when I use datenum(datetime1) within the patch function.
