MATLAB: How to access signals logged from Simulink which contains spaces in their name

accessinglogloggedloggingsignalssimulink

When I log Signals in Simulink, I obtain a structure named 'logsout'. If the signal is a bus which contains signals with space in their name I can not access it from the workspace.
When I log a Bus signal, I try to access its values in the MATLAB workspace by using the following command:
logsout.VeryBig.Big Bus
I receive the following error message:
 ??? logsout.VeryBig.Big Bus
 Error: Unexpected MATLAB expression.
I would like to know a way to access this signal.

Best Answer

To access logged data that have spaces in their names, use the following syntax:
logsout.VeryBig.('Big Bus')
If the Bus signal contains many levels of signals, the following error is generated:
logsout.VeryBig.('Big Bus').('bus with space')
 ??? Error using ==> subsref
 Invalid field name component.
To workaround this issue, please assign the subfield to a new variable as in the following example:
B=logsout.VeryBig.('Big Bus')
B.('bus with space')
