Why is there a large empty graph in the background of my screen?

Im trying to position a bar graph in my GUI. BUT because bar doesnt have a position property, I'm using axes() to position it correctly. But for some reason, when i do graph it, a large empty graph appears behind it, even though, the perfectly formatted graph is in its rightful place.

Code: AX = axes('Position', [.4 .4 .55 .47] );

H1 = bar(x,Pool14_30_Storage);

set(get(AX,'Ylabel'),'String','Storage (AF)');

And so on... Someone please help, matlab is being ridiculous right now. i even use cla to, it still doesnt work.

Ok nevermind, I put a set (gca, 'visible', 'off') before setting AX to its position, that will take care of it!
