Do the command:

axis(app.UIAxes1,"auto"); % UIAxes1 is just the name of the plot window

For auto adjusting the plot window to show all data being plotted.

Hello. I have the same problem than Pavel.

The 2 answers does not solve the problem. Concerning "normalise", like Pavel, I don't find these options.

And the solution with axis, doesn't work for this problem because it s not to fit to the data in the uiaxes. The problem is when the uifigure is resized, the uiaxes doesn't resize well.

Thank you all for your reply because I tried lot of things without success.

For me Lucas' solution works just fine in v2024b Update1.

You should confirm the units property of your axes is set to normalized. If this is not possible you will have to use a listener that will resize the axes when the figure changes size.

How does one set the units property of ones axes to be normalized? I can't find the option in the appdesigners righthand menu.

Hi Linus! I didn't find too these options? Did you find something? Thanks!

Unfortunately, the app designer UI doesn't provide you with the option to change the units property. Alternatively, you can create a panel in the app designer window and place the UIAxes under the panel. Then in the startup function, add the below commands.

app.UIAxes.Units = "normalized";       % Changes units to scalable
app.UIAxes.Position = [0 0 1 1];       % Position [x,y] = [0,0] and [Xsize,YSize] = [1 1] of the parent object (Panel element)

It worked for me.
