<h2>2.1: Position vs OuterPosition&nbsp;<a href="User_guide2.html"><img src="Images/uparrow.png" border="0" align="top" alt="Go back up one level"/></a></h2>
<p>Typically one
would position some axes using their <code>OuterPosition</code> so that the
axis labels, title and other annotations are all contained within the
specified area. Sometimes, particularly if drawing images, one might want
to instead make the axes canvas (the white bit!) fill the specified area.
This is done by setting the <code>Position</code> property instead.
</p>
<h3>For example:</h3>
<pre style="background-color: #eeeeff; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px"><font color="#000011"><a href="matlab:doc figure"><code class="FUNCTION">figure</code></a>
<a href="matlab:doc axes"><code class="FUNCTION">axes</code></a>( 'Units', 'Normalized', 'OuterPosition', [0 0 1 1] )
</font></pre>
<p style="background-color: #ddddee; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px"><font color="#000022"><center><img src="Images/axes_outer.png"/></center></font></p>
<pre style="background-color: #eeeeff; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px"><font color="#000011"><a href="matlab:doc figure"><code class="FUNCTION">figure</code></a>
<a href="matlab:doc axes"><code class="FUNCTION">axes</code></a>( 'Units', 'Normalized', 'Position', [0 0 1 1] )
</font></pre>
