How to rotate a figure in MATLAB?

Hi,

I generated a figure of step through imagesc with x,y and z values. x and y are a column vectors and dimensions of x is not equal to dimension of y and z is a matrix with no. of row equal to y and no. of column equal to x. How can I rotate this image through a small angle (10 degree), so that edge of the step look tilted. Figure is attached. Thanks in advance.

Probably the easiest way is to use view(), if you do not mind that the labels and axes lines tilt as well.

If the labels and axes need to stay fixed, then you should create a hgtransform group, set the imagesc parent to be the transform, use maketform to create the transform matrix, and apply the transform to the hgtransform group
