Hi,
Is it possible to edit the colorbar of a heatmap such that it looks like the following image (rapidly created with paint ;) )
a.PNG
So the values aren't numeric but strings.
Thanks for help!

The handle to the colorbar in heatmap is inaccessible. Without the handle, you can't change properties to the colorbar; you can't even delete it. Even when you try to add a new colorbar, you cannot output the handle with a heatmap plot.
heatmap() in general is highly restrictive in the user's abilty to manipulate many of its properties. I used to use heatmap more frequently prior to these changes and have moved onto using imagesc() instead. Bummer.

This can't be done with heatmap() (see comments under the question).
If you're using a different function that allows access to the colobar, it's fairly straightforward. Here's a demo.
% Create demo
C = rand(3,4)/10;
imagesc(C)
cbh = colorbar();
% set color range
caxis([0,.1])
% set ticks
set(cbh, 'YTick', [0.001, 0.01, 0.05, .1], ...
'YTickLabel', {'p=0.001', 'p=0.01', 'p=0.05', 'p=.1'})

The handle to the colorbar is accessible, and with it all modifications:
figure;
heatmap(rand(5))
axs = struct(gca); %ignore warning that this should be avoided
cb = axs.Colorbar;
cb.TickLabels = {'p<0.1','p>0.1','...'};

another way to access the colorbar can be found in the following post:

Is it possible to add a label to that colour bar which is directly created in a heatmap? I mean we can tag a SURF plot (the colourbar because it is separated from the surfplot), but I have not found the manner of doing the same in the colorbar of the heatmap.
