MATLAB: How to extract configuration parameters from a model

simulink

I want to save all the config params from a model so that I can use the same set in another model. How can I do that?

You can save the settings of configuration sets as MATLAB® functions or scripts. Using the MATLAB function or script, you can share and archive model configuration sets. You can also compare the settings in different configuration sets by comparing the MATLAB functions or scripts of the configuration sets.

To save an active or inactive configuration set from the Model Explorer:

Open the model.
Open the Model Explorer.
Save the configuration set:

In the Model Hierarchy pane:
Right-click the model node and select Configuration > Export Active Configuration Set.
Right-click a configuration set and select Export.
Select the model. In the Contents pane, right-click a configuration set and select Export.
In the Export Configuration Set to File dialog box, specify the name of the file and the file type. If you specify a .m extension, the file contains a function that creates a configuration set object. If you specify a .mat extension, the file contains a configuration set object.
Click Save. The Simulink® software saves the configuration set.

You can load configuration sets that you previously saved as MATLAB functions or scripts.

To load a configuration set from the Model Explorer:

Open the model.
Open the Model Explorer.
In the Model Hierarchy pane, right-click the model and select Configuration > Import.
In the Import Configuration Set From File dialog box, select the .m file that contains the function to create the configuration set object, or the .mat file that contains the configuration set object.
Click Open. The Simulink software loads the configuration set.
Optionally, activate the configuration set. For more information, see Activate a Configuration Set.

MATLAB: Comparing Simulink.ConfigSet objects

You can compare the config sets by saving them to MAT files and then compare those files. For example:

% Get the first config set from the model
configSet = getConfigSet(<model_name>, <config_set_1_name>);
% Save the config set to a MAT file
save('configSet1.mat', 'configSet');
% Get the second config set from the model
configSet = getConfigSet(<model_name>, <config_set_2_name>);
% Save the second config set to a different MAT file
save('configSet2.mat', 'configSet');
% Compare the files
visdiff('configSet1.mat', configSet2.mat');

This will generate a report that displays the differences between the two files. You can inspect the results to determine whether there are any functional differences.

MATLAB: How to disable the ZOOM context menu in MATLAB 7.6 (R2008a)

To control the behavior of a right-click action when ZOOM is active change the property ‘rightclickaction’ of the zoom mode object.

A value of 'InverseZoom' causes a right-click to zoom out.

h=zoom(gcf);
set(h,'rightclickaction','InverseZoom');
