With linkaxes function, your scale limit for both x-axis or y-axis are same.
It does not allow user to zoom it and out with different scale of the both x-axis or both y-axis.
It can be solved by set2xyaxis and it allows user to zoom in and out of the graph.

% set2xyaxis help you to set the 2nd axis with different scales
% zoom function is built to allow user to zoom in and out of graph
% The scale of two axis will follow the zoom proportionally.
%
% set2xyaxis(labelx1, labely1,labelx2,labely2,xlim2,ylim2)
% Example :
% figure
% x1 = 0:0.1:40;
% y1 = 4.*cos(x1)./(x1+2);
% line(x1,y1,'Color','r')
% set2xyaxis('ni hao','da jia hao','hao ma',1,[0 2],[30 40]);

grid on;

%% Count the scale
scaleX = (ax1.XLim(2)-ax1.XLim(1))/(ax2.XLim(2)-ax2.XLim(1));

%% set properties of call back function
h = zoom(ax2);
h.ActionPostCallback = @mypostcallback;

end

newLim = evd.Axes.XLim;
global ax1 scaleX
set(ax1,'xlim',[newLim(1)*scaleX newLim(2)*scaleX]);
