MATLAB: Deleting rows from a uitable

handle graphicsMATLABuitable cellselectioncallback

My question appears to be rather simple, but I haven't been able to come across a solution yet. Suppose we have a pushbutton that will be used to delete a given row within said uitable. I need to get the information as to which row is selected before I delete it.

So, first of all, how do I select an entire row in the uitable (i seem to be restricted to selecting cells), and secondly, what type of callback (CellSelectionCallBack perhaps) should I be looking to get.

Finally, how do I get the information from this callback, i.e. is it possible to store the row number in a variable?

You can not select a column or a row currently (2010b). You can select cells. You might be able to hack something together from that selection. Is that something you are willing to do? If so, edit your question to reflect this.

The UserData does not contain the index of the cell selection. To get the index of your cell selection you need to use the 2nd input to the callback function. See below.

Assuming delete_row_Callback() is a cell selection callback function, hObject is the first input, eventdata is the second input,

D=hObject.Data; 
Index=eventdata.Indices; 
D(Index(1), :) = []; 
hObject.Data = D;

MATLAB: UItable CellSelectionCallback

The CellSelectionCallback will be passed a minimum of two parameters, the first of which will be the uitable handle, and the second of which is the event data, which people commonly program to be received into the variable named "event". For CellSelectionCallback, event will be a structure which will have one field named "Indices" and it is that you want to look at.

For example,

function GasPricesTable_Selection_CB(src, event)
  selected_cells = event.Indices;
