MATLAB: How to close a figure and make the rest of the code run

isopen

Hello everyone, I think I have an easy question but I don't know exactly how to execute it.

My code starts executing a GUI which opens a Figure where I have to visualize certain images. I want that when I finish my visualization and close this Figure (GUI), the rest of my code continues.

I think it should be something like:

GUI
while Figure isopen
%something
end
RestOfMyCode

or am I wrong?

Thank you so much for your help!

uiwait(Figure_Handle)

MATLAB: What is the uiwait

uiwait(FIG_handle) blocks execution until either UIRESUME is called or the figure FIG is destroyed (closed). uiwait with no input arguments is the same as uiwait(gcf). In this example, a figure is created along with a pushbutton. After the figure is created, uiwait is called until you push the button. When you push the button, the callback calls uiresume.

f = figure('pos',[30 800 250 150]);
h = uicontrol('Position', [20 20 200 40], 'String', 'Continue', ...
              'Callback', 'uiresume(gcbf);close(gcbf)');
disp('This will print immediately');
uiwait(gcf);
disp('This will print after you click Continue');

MATLAB: Capturing the same frame

So don't create a new figure each frame. How does this work:

obj = VideoReader('Climate.mp4');
for k = 1 : obj.NumberOfFrames
  this_frame = read(obj, k);
  imshow(this_frame);
  title(sprintf('Frame #%d', k), 'FontSize', 14);
  drawnow; % Force immediate repaint of screen.
  pause(0.1); % Increase number to slow it down more.
end
