1. Use 'colorbar'
c=colorbar('vert'); % vert adds colorbar to z-axis values. 'horiz' adds color bar to x-values.
2. Reduce the size of the colorbar
xa1=get(gca,'position');
xa=get(c,'Position');
xa(3)=0.03;
xa(4)=0.65;
set(c,'Position',xa)
3. Adding title to the colorbar (this sits on top)
title(c,'Hz')
4. Adding ylabel to it (along vertical axis)
ylabel('Error')
Example:
c=colorbar('vert'); % vert adds colorbar to z-axis values. 'horiz' adds color bar to x-values.
