Assign same linewidth to a grouped barplot

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to assign the same linewidth to a grouped barplot, it says that i have to use the comma separated list assigment, but frankly i've never dealt with lists in matlab, and i really don't know how to do it.

v1=rand(10,1);
v2=rand(10,1);
x=[1:10];
combined=[v1,v2];
barplot=bar(x,combined,'grouped');
barplot.LineWidth=%And now i'd like to put for the 2 series the same linewidth=1

Thank you :)

hello

v1=rand(10,1);
v2=rand(10,1);
x=[1:10];
combined=[v1,v2];
barplot=bar(x,combined,'grouped');
barplot(1).BarWidth = 1; % both bars are grouped so doing the mod on the first one will be applied on second bar too;

[Mathieu NOE]

maybe I interpreted that the question could be related to the bar width and not the surrounding line width

in the latter case you can do this :

v1=rand(10,1);
v2=rand(10,1);
x=[1:10];
combined=[v1,v2];
barplot=bar(x,combined,'grouped');
barplot(1).LineWidth = 3;
barplot(2).LineWidth = 2;

You interpreted it well, my sentence was wrong: i wanted to change the barwidth and not the linewidth.

Your answers are very helpful and i got it!

Thank you

The same syntax applies as shown before; just use the correct property name:

set(barplot,{'barwidth'},{1})

which will also work in cases where must set each handle of the handle array.

You can't use the "dot" notation with an array of handles, anyway; must use set here, or a looping construct of some sort.

set(barplot,{'linewidth'},{2})

NB: Must pass cell arrays even for single values to assign for multiple handles There are detailed examples of the use for more complicated cases in the documentation for set()
