Hello all,

I had an issue before in which my plots were combining due to an open hold on function. I am having this issue again but I do not know the solution. I have closed all of my open hold on functions and yet it is still happening. I have included the code below.

%Code 1
w = @(Y,K,k,n) k*Y^n/(K^n + Y^n)
v = @(Y,K,k,n) k*K^n/(K^n + Y^n);
limits = [0 5];
for i=1:5,
    vt = @(Y) v(Y,1,10,2);
    fplot(vt,limits,'color','r');
end
hold on 
for j=1:5,
    wt = @(Y) w(Y,1,10,2);
    fplot(wt,limits,'color','g');
end
hold off
axis([0 5 0 10])
ylabel('dX/dt')
xlabel('Y')
legend('repressor', 'activator', 'Location', 'northeastoutside')
%Code 2
syms a b X(t) X0;
eqn = diff(X)== a - b*X;
cond = X(0) == X0;
X = dsolve(eqn,cond);
pretty(X)
syms t a b X0
mX = matlabFunction(X,'vars',[t a b X0]);
f1 = @(t) mX(t, 10, 1, 1);
f2 = @(t) mX(t, 50, 5, 1);
f3 = @(t) mX(t, 5, 1, 1);
f4 = @(t) mX(t, 1.2, 0.1, 1);
limits = [0 10];
hold on
fplot(f1, limits, 'k');
fplot(f2, limits, 'r');
fplot(f3, limits, 'b');
fplot(f4, limits, 'g');
hold off
axis([0 10 0 11])
ylabel('X')
xlabel('time')
legend('a=10, b=1', 'a=50, b=5', 'a=5, b=1', 'a=1.2, b=0.1', 'Location', 'SouthEast')

In line 32 of your code there is a (second) "hold on" which acts on the active axes. If you want to have two figures with one axes each, then you have to add a the "figure" command before the hold on command. You can also use one figure with two axes using subplot(2,1,1) before your first for-loop and subplot(2,1,2) before the second "hold on".

You should get into the habit of always keeping the handles to figure, axes, plots etc that you will be applying anything further to.

e.g.

hFig = figure; hAxes = gca;

then you can always use an explicit axes handle for instructions such as:

fplot( hAxes,... )
hold( hAxes, 'on' )

etc.

It requires a little more coding, but makes your life so much easier, knowing exactly where something will be plotted and which axes will have the 'hold' instruction applied, rather than always relying on the current axes being the one you expect it to be.

You are welcome and thank you for accepting the answer. As you are new to this, I would like to add some comments to your code:

The comma at the end of your for statement is unneccessary and uncommon
Add clearvars, close all and clc at the beginning of your scripts
You should see the warning "Function behaves unexpectedly on array inputs" when running your script. Check your functions and add a dot before /*^ if you expect element-wise operations (I think this is the case here)
As Adam said, use figure and axes handles, but i do not recommend using gca, but the more explicit way:

hFig = figure('Name','YouNameIt');
hAxes = axes('Parent', hFig);

Now You can also create a figure handle array and set axes inside those figures and dont have to worry about which axes are active.

Everything you did to add labels, set axis limits and so on is correct, but check out the methods and properties of the axes handles, e.g. to set the xlabel you could write

hAxes.XLabel.String = 'time';
