Adding text to each subplots

I am plotting 4 maps in one figure and I want to add text at left bottom of each subplot. If given a fix lat and lon range, I can assign a location to the text like:

text(lon,lat,texts);

or I can use relative location like: annotation(figure1,'textbox', [distance1 distance2 width height] ) for each subplot.

BUT what if I want to make a function that always put the text at the left bottom of each subplot given any size of the map?

For example, my current function can make worldmaps with texts in each subplot like this:

the code is: text(-17790000,-3064000,texts,'fontsize',13);

but the text won't show up if I am plotting a continent rather than the globe:

Any solution for that?

Thanks!

Use xlim and ylim to make the text positions relative to the axes —

x1 = linspace(0,10, 25);
y1 = exp(-0.1*x1);
x2 = linspace(-1,1, 25);
y2 = exp(-0.75*x2) .* sin(2*pi*x2);

subplot(2,1,1)
plot(x1, y1)
grid
text(min(xlim), min(ylim), sprintf('Text for subplot %d', 1), 'Horiz','left', 'Vert','bottom')
subplot(2,1,2)
plot(x2, y2)
grid
text(min(xlim), min(ylim), sprintf('Text for subplot %d', 2), 'Horiz','left', 'Vert','bottom')

.

I knew it would be simple! Thank you soooo much!

As always, my pleasure!

Hi! is there a way I can adjust this in order to place the text into the top right hand corner please!

Thank you

You can use replace min(xlim) by max(xlim) etc.
