MATLAB: Does the MATLAB Command Window throw a segmentation violation when using the “Load Workspace” menu item

I am using the MATLAB Command Window without the MATLAB Desktop in MATLAB 7 (R14).

When I use the "Load Workspace…" option from the "File…" menu, I receive a segmentation violation.

This bug has been fixed for Release 14 SP1 (R14SP1). For previous releases, please read below for any possible workarounds:

This is a bug in MATLAB 7.0 (R14) in the way that the "Load Workspace..." menu option handles the loading of workspaces.

To work around this issue, you can use the LOAD function at the MATLAB command prompt to load the MAT-file containing the desired workspace.

For example, to load the workspace contained in the file "myWorkspace.mat," issue the following command at the MATLAB command prompt:

load myWorkspace.mat

For more information on the LOAD function, refer to the online documentation at:

MATLAB: Is the font size of the legend not preserved when the figure is saved using “File -> Save As” menu item in MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2)

This bug has been fixed in Release 2006a (R2006a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

A bug in MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2) prevents it from preserving the legend font size when the figure is saved using the "File -> Save As" menu option of the figure window.

To work around this issue, use the SAVEAS function from command line to save the figure as a graphic file, as follows:

saveas(h,'filename','format'); % 'h' is the handle of the figure.

Note that the above workaround does not work when saving a figure as a '.fig' file.

MATLAB: Does “Load from disk file” not work properly from the NNTOOL GUI within the Neural Network Toolbox 4.0.2 (R13)

This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

This has been verified as a bug in the Neural Network Toolbox 4.0.2 (R13).

The problem occurs due to input data variables being saved as cell arrays within a MAT-file. You can verify this by loading the variables to the workspace using the LOAD function.

As a workaround you can either:

1) Save the inputs to the workspace, and then use the SAVE function in the MATLAB command window.

2) Save the inputs using the "SAVE to MAT-file" button within the NNTOOL GUI. Load the variables to the MATLAB workspace using the LOAD function. Finally, use the CELL2MAT function to convert the cell array into double arrays.
