Hello all,
i am having trouble with x-axis adjustment.
Below is the original code before implementing any change to the x-axis.
As it is to be seen on the first picture, the x-axis labeling is clustered and the numbers are not horizontally placed.
figure
boxplot(TT3.P,round(TT3.OT),'PlotStyle','compact')
title('Power consumption depending on the outside temperature')
xlabel('Outside temperature [°C]')
ylabel('Heating power [kW]')
grid on
In order to correct the issues mentioned above i have added 'set' to adjust the x-axis.
figure
boxplot(TT3.P,round(TT3.OT),'PlotStyle','compact')
title('Power consumption depending on the outside temperature')
xlabel('Outside temperature [°C]')
xlim([-15 35])
ylabel('Heating power [kW]')
set(gca, 'XLim',[-15 35], 'XTick', -15:5:35 , 'XTickLabel', -15:5:35);
grid on
However the plotted figure does not represent what i intended to show.
It simply shifted to the right and is not showing the negative side of values on the x-axis (as it is to be seen in the picture below).
What may be the problem and how may i proceed?
Thank you.

Try either:
set(gca, 'XLim',[-15 35], 'XTick', -15:5:35 , 'XTickLabel', 'auto');
Or, XTickLabel requires a 1xn cell array with string inputs! So something like this:
xticklabels=cell(1,length(-15:5:35));
indx = 1;
for i =-15:5:35
xticklabels{indx} = num2str(i);
indx=indx+1;
end
figure
boxplot(TT3.P,round(TT3.OT),'PlotStyle','compact')
title('Power consumption depending on the outside temperature')
xlabel('Outside temperature [°C]')
xlim([-15 35])
ylabel('Heating power [kW]')
set(gca, 'XLim',[-15 35], 'XTick', -15:5:35 , 'XTickLabel', xticklabels);
grid on

Ran in:
What appears to be x-ticks in the compact boxplot are really text labels that are a member of an hggroup along with the boxplot components.
Here are two ways to rotate the text and remove some of the "ticks".
Method 1: Remove some existing labels
This demo isolates the text labels, rotates them, and removes 2/3 of them.
boxplot(randi(50,39),(1:39)-9,'plotstyle','compact');
ax = gca();
% Get handle to the hggroup
boxplotGroupHandle = findobj(ax,'Type','hggroup','Tag','boxplot');
% Get handle to the text labels that serve as x-ticks
textHandles = findobj(boxplotGroupHandle, 'type', 'text');
% The handles are in reverse order so we'll flip the vector to make indexing easier
textHandles = flipud(textHandles);
% Rotate and recenter text
set(textHandles, 'rotation', 0,'HorizontalAlignment','center','VerticalAlignment','bottom')
% Keep 1 "tick label" out of every 3
% Instead of deleting handles, replace their string with an empty ''
rmIndx = ~ismember(1:numel(textHandles), 1:3:numel(textHandles));
set(textHandles(rmIndx), 'String', '')
Method 2: Replace the labels with actual x-ticks
This demo isolates the text labels, removes them, and adds in actual x-tick labels.
boxplot(randi(50,39),(1:39)-9,'plotstyle','compact');
ax = gca();
% Get handle to the hggroup
boxplotGroupHandle = findobj(ax,'Type','hggroup','Tag','boxplot');
% Get handle to the text labels that serve as x-ticks
textHandles = findobj(boxplotGroupHandle, 'type', 'text');
% Store their string values; note that the original order is reversed so
% we'll flip it now to correct that.
textStr = get(flipud(textHandles), 'String');
% Delete the text
delete(textHandles)
% Add xticks: add 1 tick for every 3
ax.XTickLabelMode = 'auto';
ax.XTick = 1:3:numel(textStr);
ax.XTickLabel = textStr(1:3:end);
