You have to set the labels by xtickvalues and then use the vector of
names as David mentioned before.

xtickvalues is plenty described in the online help

If one needed this, then what:
where x=2.2, a label 'cat'
where x=4.7, a label 'dog'
where x=6.33, a label '1.7'
where x=8,1, a label 'fish'

Thanks DF for your suggestion below.

Thanks,
Mark
