Follow-up Comment #1:

Your example has a bug in it. The "activepositionproperty" for ax1 is
"outerposition" and that for ax2 is "position".

The following fixes that


clf ()

x1 = [0:.1:40];
y1 = 4.*cos(x1)./(x1+2);
plot(x1,y1)
ax1 = gca;
set (ax1, "activepositionproperty", "position");

ax2 = axes ();
set (ax2, 'OuterPosition', get (ax1, 'OuterPosition'),
          'Position', get (ax1, 'Position'),
          'Color', 'none',
          'XTick', [],
          'YAxisLocation', 'right',
          'YTick', exp (get (ax1, 'YTick')),
          'YLim', exp (get (ax1, 'YLim')),
          'XLim', exp (get (ax1, 'XLim')),
          'YScale', 'log');
ylabel (ax1, 'Log Index')
ylabel (ax2, 'Index')

set (gcf, 'PaperUnits', 'centimeters')
set (gcf, 'PaperSize', [15 12])
set (gcf, 'PaperPosition', [0 0 15 12])

saveas(gcf,'test.pdf')


However, this still does not work. The updater for "position" should be
changing the "activepositionproperty" for ax2, but is not.

I'll take a look.

For now, a work around is to add the following lines.


set (ax2, 'OuterPosition', get (ax1, 'OuterPosition'),
          'Position', get (ax1, 'Position'),
          'ActivePositionProperty', 'Position')
