GUI Examples #5: Explore simple string manipulation and user notification
function [] = GUI_5() % Demonstrate how to use a pushbutton to delete bits of string and how to % let the user know that their actions are futile. After the string is % deleted completely, the user is informed that there is nothing left to % delete if the delete button is pressed again. A color change accompanies % this announcement. % % Suggested exercise: Add a counter to S that starts incrementing when the % warning is given. If the user clicks again, close the GUI. % % % Author: Matt Fig % Date: 7/15/2009 S.fh = figure('units','pixels',... 'position',[300 300 300 100],... 'menubar','none',... 'name','GUI_5',...
