MATLAB: Display dataset showing full char entries

chardatasetdisplay

By default, the display function only explicitly displays character array entries in datasets if they have length 10 or less. Is there a way to override this to display character entries with arbitrary length?

Best Answer

Yes, you can construct your own routine named "display" and put it in your path. The routine will need to know how to format everything according to your tastes -- numeric arrays, cell arrays, structures, datasets, and so on.
And if you are saying to yourself, "That sounds pretty yucky!" then you would be correct. There is no (known) tunable parameter so all you can do is replace the display routine entirely.
