MATLAB: Anyone know what’s up with Urs (us) Schwartz

cssmfile exchange

The venerable us has apparently dropped off CSSM on Aug 11, 2010 and from FEX a few days earlier. Anyone know what's up? Is everything ok?

Best Answer

It looks like Urs Schwarz is still an active neuroscience researcher at Neuroscience Center Zurich so that is good news. His contributions to the file exchange and user groups are certainly missed.

Now that I read the blog post linked to by Jan, I am beginning to remember "Select". I also recall a brief period where John took down his submissions from the FEX. My guess is "Select" must of been ended during that period and the system is now confused.

MATLAB: How to obtain the coordinates of the mouse on the screen displayed somewhere in the figure window

This enhancement has been incorporated in MATLAB 7.5 (R2007b).

As a workaround in previous MATLAB releases, you can use the following MATLAB function to track mouse motion:

function mousetrk
%MOUSETRK function to track mouse motion
% This function creates two static text controls
% which contain the x & y coordinates of the mouse
% The driving callback is executed by the
% WindowButtonMotionFcn of the figure.
figure
axes('Visible','off')
xbox = uicontrol('Style','text','Tag','xbox');
xboxlabel = uicontrol('Style','text','String','X Value',...
    'Position',get(xbox,'position')+[0 21 0 0]);
ybox = uicontrol('Style','text','Position',[90 20 60 20],'Tag','ybox');
yboxlabel = uicontrol('Style','text','String','Y Value',...
    'Position',get(ybox,'position')+[0 21 0 0]);
callback = ['pt = get(gca,''CurrentPoint'');'...
  'xbox = findobj(''Tag'',''xbox'');' ...
  'ybox = findobj(''Tag'',''ybox'');' ...
  'set(xbox,''String'',num2str(pt(1,1)));' ...
  'set(ybox,''String'',num2str(pt(1,2)));'];
set(gcf,'WindowButtonMotionFcn',callback);
