How can I move the axes rulers into the middle of axes within MATLAB 7.3 (R2006b)?

When I execute the following code:

x = 1:11;

t = 1:30;

for i=1:length(x)

      xt(i,:) = t;

      tz(i,:) = x(i)*ones(1,length(t));

      z(i,:) = sin(2*pi*0.1*t);

end

h = plot3(xt',tz',z'); grid;

axis([min(min(xt)) max(max(xt)) min(min(tz)) max(max(tz)) min(min(z)) max(max(z))]);

view(-3,10);

I would like to set the x-axis and y-axis to the plane z=0 instead of z=-1 with a common origin 0.

The ability to change the location of axes lines relative to the graphics objects is not available in MATLAB.

To work around this issue you can use a function submitted to MATLAB Central to draw the axes lines in the desired location. The following URL will lead you to the file:
