Did you try changing the "position" property of the figure object (as
opposed to the axes object)?

For example

  set (gcf, "position", [1900, 1000, 500, 400]);

moves the active figure into the top right corner of my display. Or

  hfig = figure ("position", [1900, 1000, 500, 400]);

creates the figure with the position and size already set.

Note that if you are using gnuplot, this only works with the "x11" or
"windows" terminals, while the preferred terminal for visual display is
now "qt".

HTH,
