Create subplot that spans multiple grid positions

Hello community,

I would like to create a subplot that spans multiple grid positions.

I tried it as following but its only possible to hand over scalar values to the subplot function

subplot(2,2,1)
    plot(x,y)

subplot(2,2,2)
    plot(x,y)

subplot(2,2,3:4)  <----- thats the issue
    plot(x,y)

Best regards,

Nils
