    If you want to wiggle just x and leave y alone you could do it this way:

    freq = 7;
    amp = 50;
    w = wiggle(freq,amp);
    [w[0],value[1]]

    If you want to wiggle both x and y but with different parameters, you could do it like this:

    xFreq = 7;
    xAmp = 50;
    yFreq = 3;
    yAmp = 100;
    wX = wiggle(xFreq,xAmp);
    wY = wiggle(yFreq,yAmp);
    [wX[0],wY[1]]
