MATLAB: Hot to set fields from one GUI to another

communicationgui

Dear all,

I've been able to transfer variables from one gui to another, there's plenty of stuff around on that.

What I haven't been able to do is to set a field of a GUI from another GUI.

Here's an example: I have two GUIs opened: GUI1 and GUI2. GUI1 has a text box, GUI2 has a push button. Now, when I push the button on GUI2 I would like so set the string in the text box of GUI1 to something.

How can I achieve this?

Thanks!

Lorenzo

MATLAB: Calling a function in one GUi from another

You need a method to let GUI1 find the handle of GUI2. E.g. the 'Tag' of the FIGURE might be helpful. Then the callback of the GUI1:pushbutton1 searches this tag at first:

GUI1H = findobj(allchild(0), '-flat', 'Tag', 'GUI1');

Now you can get the handles STRUCT of GUI1:

GUI1_handles = guidata(GUI1H);

Assuming, that you find the handle of the edittext1 there:

GUI2_handles = guidata(ObjH);  % Handles of GUI1
set(GUI2_handles.edittext1, ...
    'String', get(GUI2_handles.edittext1));

Actually it works with waitfor(handles.GUI_B). ;)
