dimension too large axis about matlab2tikz HOT 2 CLOSED

I looked at the code and found a bug in moveCloser(); that's fixed now.

The reason why the values don't appear as specified by MATLAB is that they are projected onto a bounding box around the axes; that way we can deal with far outliers, and is useful for lines plots. If the points aren't connected at all, this isn't necessary but it doesn't hurt either. Zooming of course doesn't work.

It may be useful to project the points onto a bounding box much larger than now, something around the TeX limits. I don't know what those are though, and they may even be machine-dependent.
