How to append an image to a plot curve

1 view (last 30 days)
I have an engineering plot using MATLAB plot command, and circuit schematic png image cooresponding to this plot. I would like to create one figure with the plot and the image stacked on tope of each other.
sample plot using command like this:
plot(app.timeArray, app.vcArray, ...
'LineWidth',app.LineWidthEditField.Value, 'Color','#ea710c')
Sample image using command like this
circuit = imread(which('RC_Charge_Circuit_Voltage.png'));
imshow(circuit)
Somehow I would like to have a script with one figure combining both the plot and the circuit image stacked (or appended) into one. The final image might look like this:

You should be able to use a tiled layout.
circuit = imread(which('RC_Charge_Circuit_Voltage.png'));
figure
tiledlayout(2,1)
nexttile
plot(app.timeArray, app.vcArray, ...
'LineWidth',app.LineWidthEditField.Value, 'Color','#ea710c')
nexttile
imshow(circuit)
If you want to make the figure background white afterward:
f = gcf;
f.Color = [1 1 1];

Thank you Chris.
With a little fiddling on figure size, your tilelayout method worked great! Thank you.
