Combining Two plots with different with the same y axis and different x axis length

Hi,

I am plotting two figures with the same y-axis and I am using nexttile. I keep getting them as two boxes with the same area but I want to have them in the following form:

any suggestions on how to do that?

Thank you

If the widths of your two plot boxes have an integer ratio (such as 4:1), you can use tiledlayout to do this. First create one row of five tiles, then merge the first four tiles for the first plot:

t = tiledlayout(1,5)
nexttile([1,4])     % merge first four tiles in row 1
% plot something
[X,Y,Z] = peaks
imagesc(Z)
nexttile            % last tile in row 1
% another plot with the same y axis
imagesc(Z(:,1:10))
