MATLAB: How to include a picture in .fig using GUIDE and no .m file

figureguideImage Processing Toolbox

The task is to include a picture in a .fig file using GUIDE, without using and generating the .m file (Tool –> GUIoption –> Generate FIG file only). It's clear I need to insert a Axes Box and using createFcn try to insert the picture. It seems that GUIDE does not recognise Matlab function like imshow('name.png').

Any ideas how to do it?

GUIDE recognizes imshow(). You just need to have an axes on the figure before you use it (I think, though it may create a new figure with an axes on it if you don't already have an axes). imshow() used to be part of the Image Processing Toolbox but in 2015 it moved into base MATLAB.

You must use an "axes" control, not a static text label control.

theImage = imread(filename);
axes(handles.axesImage); % Use actual variable names from your program!
imshow(theImage);

Since I don't have your full code, I have made two assumptions:

I have changed the button's TAG to "button_capture"
Make sure your capture button code returns newName (if it is a separate function, if you do that in the callback, then don't worry).

Now find the callback when the button is pressed.

This will then be something like:

function button_capture_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% Run the capture button code
[newName] = capture_button_code(varargin);
% hObject is the calling object, ie; our button, we now update it's string
set(hObject,'String',newName)
