MATLAB: Change Pop up menu choices when GUI is started

guiguideMATLAB

I have a cell called sheetNamesOECF containing strings, this cell is updated in the main mfile, When I run the gui for the first time, the pop up menu will show the strings that are in the sheetNamesOECF cell. Now when I run the main mfile again with different parameters, the sheetNamesOECF cell will have different strings. But when I run the gui the old strings are still in the pop up menu. Is there a way to change to pop up menu strings on GUI start?

Kind regards,

Fixed,

Put:

   set(handles.popupmenu1, 'String', sheetNamesOECF);

in your OpeningFcn.

In your radio button (actually the button group since you must have 4 exclusive radio buttons) SelectionChangeFcn callback function:

Tag=get(hObject,'Tag')
switch Tag
case 'radiobutton1'
      ctqString= {'Option0'; 'Option1'; 'Option 2'; 'Option3'};
case 'radiobutton2'
      ctqString= {'Option10'; 'Option11'; 'Option 12'};
end
set(handles.ctqMenu,'String',ctqString);

Sergei - a GUI, as created through GUIDE, can only be launched in one of three ways: through GUIDE, through the MATLAB editor (so you press the run button while editing the m file if the GUI), or from the Command Window by calling the GUI by name

 >> myGui

where you have a myGui.m and myGui.fig files. You cannot double-click on the figure file to launch the GUI because this method will only open the GUI and display its controls. It will not initialize the necessary or appropriate members (like handles) and so you will observe errors like you have described above.
