MATLAB: Inputdlg respond to enter

Hi! Is it possible for the inputdlg box to respond to the enter button instead of clicking at the ok button? BR Johan

You can modify inputdlg so that the focus is automatically set on the enter button otherwise you have to push tab before enter.

Try this:

namesList = {'Sally', 'Fred', 'John'};
groceryList = cell(length(namesList), 2);
for n=1:quanShoppers
    line1 = sprintf('Enter item for %s', namesList{n})
    line2 = 'Enter price paid'
    prompt = {line1; line2}
    dlg_title = sprintf('Shopping list for %s', namesList{n})
    userResponse = inputdlg(prompt, dlg_title, 1)
    groceryList(n, 1) = namesList(n);
    groceryList{n, 2} = userResponse{1};
    groceryList{n, 3} = userResponse{2};
end

Cancel and OK are hardcoded in inputdlg

OKHandle=uicontrol(InputFig     ,              ...
  BtnInfo      , ...
  'Position'   ,[ FigWidth-2*BtnWidth-2*DefOffset DefOffset BtnWidth BtnHeight ] , ...
  'KeyPressFcn',@doControlKeyPress , ...
  'String'     ,'OK'        , ...
  'Callback'   ,@doCallback , ...
  'Tag'        ,'OK'        , ...
  'UserData'   ,'OK'          ...
  );
setdefaultbutton(InputFig, OKHandle);
CancelHandle=uicontrol(InputFig     ,              ...
  BtnInfo      , ...
  'Position'   ,[ FigWidth-BtnWidth-DefOffset DefOffset BtnWidth BtnHeight ]           , ...
  'KeyPressFcn',@doControlKeyPress            , ...
  'String'     ,xlate('Cancel', '-s')    , ...
  'Callback'   ,@doCallback , ...
  'Tag'        ,'Cancel'    , ...
  'UserData'   ,'Cancel'      ...
  ); %#ok

Above is code from inputdlg.m.

If you change in inputdlg.m, it will affect all inputdlg usages.

Check other similar functions if they are useful.

   dialog, errordlg, helpdlg, listdlg, msgbox,
       questdlg, textwrap, uiwait, warndlg
