Ben

Thank you for your help, I using the Octave 3.0.5 in windows and I tried using these commands about the decimals and they don't work. Is something about configuration? 

regards

Good afternoon.

I making a plot of two simple vectors, and I need  to change the
number of decimals of the axis labels. Do you have some tip in how
to do it?  Is it possible to change the orientation of the y-axis
title rotated 90 degrees?

Thanks

Presently there is no method specify the rotation of the tick labels.
However, you can try using text objects to create the labels you want.

To do that you'll need to turn off the ticklabels.

       set (gca, "yticklabel", [])

I forgot to answer your question regarding the decimals. If you'd like to force 2 decimal places ...

       set (gca, "xticklabel", cellstr (num2str (get (gca, "xtick")(:), "%.2f")))

For ytick's

       set (gca, "yticklabel", cellstr (num2str (get (gca, "ytick")(:), "%.2f")))
