MATLAB: Help with multi-window GUI

guiguideMATLABmatlab gui

My GUI tool is thus organized:

1) input_screen.m, where the user can only enter numeric values;

2) callbacks of various scripts and functions;

3) Plots and numeric results.

Instead of visualizing plots and numeric results within Matlab's main window, I want to show them in a results_screen.m kind of window.

I've been reading various help files, such as "Making multitple GUIs work together" and "Sharing Data Among a GUI's Callbacks" and I've asked previously here, but I can't find a proper workaround for my GUI.

For example, I've created axes within the results_screen.m

Now how can I use them to show my plots?

I can't figure it out how to put these commands: fig = figure(); ax = axes('Parent',fig); plot(ax,X,Y);

Same for uitable('Style' 'text') where I want to show my numeric results.

im also beginner with matlab. However my way to show a data in other window GUI is like this.

1. i save all the value that input from input_screen.m in MAT files

save VALUE a b c

2. i create new button to open the new window for results_screen GUI

result_screen()

3. i load from previous saved MAT files in results_screen then i can use that value to plot at axes in results_screen window.

load VALUE

That my way,hope it will help you.

MATLAB: How to make a push button respond to clicking with the right mouse button

There are two properties which can be used in conjunction to accomplish this.

One is the button's 'ButtonDownFcn' callback function. This callback function executes when pressing a mouse button on or near a UICONTROL object -- including when pressing the right mouse button.

The other property is the figure's 'SelectionType' property. This property indicates which kind of click was registered in the figure window -- including clicks on controls within the figure.

Putting these two together, you can define a 'ButtonDownFcn' callback for a push button which checks the figure's 'SelectionType' property to detect a right-click. An example is shown below. (In that example, the ANCESTOR function is used to get the figure's handle. If this is being done in a GUIDE-created GUI, this is unnecessary as the 'handles' structure already provides access to the figure's handle.)

function test
      uicontrol('Style', 'pushbutton', ...
                'ButtonDownFcn', @myCallback);
end
function myCallback(src, evt)
      figHandle = ancestor(src, 'figure');
      clickType = get(figHandle, 'SelectionType');
      if strcmp(clickType, 'alt')
          disp('right click action goes here!');
      end
end

MATLAB: Switch from GUI axes to figure() and back

if PlotInFigure
  handles.Fig1_axes = axes('Parent', figure(1));
  plot_into = handles.Fig1_axes;
else
  plot_into = TheHandleOfTheAxesInTheGUI;
end
plot(plot_into, x, y, '-b'),
