Space for messages in figure

Inside figure(1), I have a plot with label axis, title, legend etc and under this plot, still inside figure(1), I want to add a space where I can display few lines that right now I'm showing inside the command windows.

Like this:

desired output

How to do this?

Solution

  • How about exploiting subplot?

    subplot(10,1,1:7);                     %Taking most of the figure space for actual plot
plot(randperm(100),'d-');              %A random plot
xlabel('xlabel');  ylabel('ylabel');   %Axis Labels
legend show;                           %Legend display

subplot(10,1,10);                      %And just one part for the text/messages
xlim([1 10]);                          %For aesthetics
str = {'Comment-1','Comment-2'};       %Text that we want to display
text(1,1,str);                         %Putting the text
axis off;                              %Turning off the axis

    output
