Centering data in uitable without using uifigure?

I need to center the data in my table without using the uifigure function as I am placing the uitable and a plot on the same figure using subplots and then later outputting to a pdf.

Any help appreciated!

Data = cellstr(string([xPosRound yPosRound jbChngRound jbDistBtwnRound]));

format default

m = 6;

figure

hAx=subplot(m,m,[7 8 9 13 14 15 19 20 21 25 25 27 31 32 33]);

hUI=uitable('Data',Data, ...

'ColumnName',["X" "Y" "Chainage" "Distance"],...

'RowName',row_array', ...

'Units', ...

'Normalized', ...

'Position',hAx.Position); axis off

hAy=subplot(m,m,[10 11 12 16 17 18 22 23 24 28 29 30 34 35 36]);

plot(xPos,yPos,'bo',x,y,'r'); axis padded equal

hAz = subplot(m,m,[3 4]);

imshow('mwp.jpg')

set(gcf, 'Position',[100 500 1040 800])

Hi Jordan,

I understand that you want to centrethe data in the table without using the ‘uifigure’ function.

There are some limitations when using 'figure'. I suggest you to use 'uifigure' to work with your workflow. A possible workaround that might be helpful to you when using the ‘uifigure’:

1. Use the ‘uifigure’ and ‘uitable’ to add the table.
2. After creating the table use ‘uistyle’ to center the data entries. Refer the following MATLAB Answer : https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/488135-how-to-change-horizontal-alignment-left-right-center-of-entries-in-a-uitable
3. To add the ‘subplot’ in the ‘uifigure’, refer to the following MATLAB Answer - https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/1852898-how-to-use-subplot-in-a-uifigure
4. If you want to save the figure, refer this MATLAB Answer - https://in.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/406897-how-to-save-uitable-uifigure-into-pdf-file

I hope these suggestions helps in resolving the issues you are facing.

Thanks
