MATLAB: How do i know a ‘cancel’ button or the ‘cross’ button is pressed in inputdlg

Question

Hi, i am doing a simple GUI now. i don't know how to detect cancel button or cross button is pressed by user for inputdlg , i only know how to do it in questdlg,

eg. ~strcmpi(handles.quest,'OK')

Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

You could do this by checking whether the output of the function is empty:

answer = inputdlg('enter your name');
user_cancelled = isempty(answer);
