I would like to plot two graphs side by side;

I would like the boxes around the plots to touch

How do I do this?

To get the effect you want, you can create two axes and set their positions. For example, ...

figure (1)

clf

x = 0:0.01:10;

h1 = axes ();

h2 = axes ();

p1 = p2 = get (h1, "position");

p1(3) = p2(3) = p1(3) / 2;

p2(1) = p2(1) + p1(3);

axes (h1)

plot (x, sin(x))

xlabel ("radians")

ylabel sin(x)

axes (h2)

plot (x*180/pi, sin(x))

xlabel ("degrees")

set (h1, "position", p1);

set (h2, "position", p2, "ytick", []);
