Change plot title of saved figure

Is there a way to edit the title of a plot after saving and reloading the figure? I created a lot of figures with a tiledlayout and after saving them I realised I have to change the title. I can't find a way to edit that in the properties editor, neither do I know how to edit it by code.

At the moment I am trying that

myfig = openfig("name_of_my_fig.fig");
title(myfig,"pls_change_the_title")

The blue marked title is what I want to change.

Hi @DraUX,

I understand that you want to update the title of a figure after saving it.

You can follow these steps:

myfig = openfig("name_of_my_fig.fig");

% Access the axes of the figure using the 'gca' function:
ax = gca;

% Modify the title of the plot using the 'title' function:
title(ax, 'New Title');

% Optionally, you can update the figure to reflect the changes:
drawnow;

% If you want to save the modified figure with the new title, you can use the savefig function again:
savefig('myfigure_modified.fig');

Thanks, but it doesn't change the title of the figure but the title of one of the plots as you can see in this image.

@DraUX Can you attach the figure here? Use the paperclip button to attach.
