MATLAB: Hiding text of a string (like passwords) – not logindlg function

Question

I need to set an "Edit Text" as a password input area, and I want the text entered by users is not visible, but replaced by symbols.

I'd like to have some indication to create my function. I already saw the video by Doug Hull about how to crypt the pwd, but I have to create a function because I already have a gui structure, and I have to set it after

function PWD_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

Do you have any idea on how to set up work?

Thanks in advance!
