Different Colormap in Two Separate Axes with custom colormaps

I'm trying to use two different colormaps for two subplots plotting temperature and topography data. http://www.mathworks.com/support/tech-notes/1200/1215.html#Example_2 This solution hasn't helped because I dont know how to modify it to load the my own colormaps instead of the built in ones..

paths to my colormaps: cmaps/cmap_cmap1 cmaps/cmap_cmap2

can anyone help, please? I'm not so good with matlab syntax yet :(

What file format are your cmaps/cmap_cmap1 and cmaps/cmap_cmap2 in ?

Hi Walter,

Oops I forgot that part. They are .mat files. I saved them with the following commands from the colormap editor documentation:

%Saving the Modified Colormap

mycmap = get(fig,'Colormap');

set(new_fig,'Colormap',mycmap)

mycmap workspace variable:

save('MyColormaps','mycmap')

Thanks!
