SUBAXIS Create axes in tiled positions. (just like subplot)
Usage:
h=subaxis(rows,cols,cellno[,settings])
h=subaxis(rows,cols,cellx,celly[,settings])
h=subaxis(rows,cols,cellx,celly,spanx,spany[,settings])

SETTINGS: Spacing,SpacingHoriz,SpacingVert
Padding,PaddingRight,PaddingLeft,PaddingTop,PaddingBottom
Margin,MarginRight,MarginLeft,MarginTop,MarginBottom
Holdaxis

all units are relative (e.g from 0 to 1)

Abbreviations of parameters can be used.. (Eg MR instead of MarginRight)
(holdaxis means that it wont delete any axes below.)


Example:

>> subaxis(2,1,1,'SpacingVert',0,'MR',0);
>> imagesc(magic(3))
>> subaxis(2,'p',.02);
>> imagesc(magic(4))
