MATLAB: Is it possible to add additional columns in the workspace browser in MATLAB 7.11 (R2010b) on the Mac machine

MATLAB

When I try to right click to add additional columns to the Workspace Browser on my Mac machine, I am unable to do so, unlike on a Windows machine.

Additional information beyond the default information of Name, Value, Max and Min cannot be displayed.

Best Answer

The ability to add additional columns in the workspace browser is not available in MATLAB.

To work around this -- with the Workspace Browser having focus, click on

View->Choose Columns

and then check whichever columns you want displayed.

MATLAB: Does the MATLAB installer quit unexpectedly on a Windows machine with no PATH environment variable

This bug has been fixed in Release 2012a (R2012a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

The error is most likely being caused by a lack of PATH environment variable on your system. You can work around the error by manually creating the missing environment variable following the instructions below:

1) Open the Windows Control Panel

2) Select 'System'

3) Select 'Advanced system settings'. A 'System Properties' window will open.

4) Select the 'Advanced' tab

5) Select the 'Environment Variables' button

6) Add a new 'System variable' named "PATH" with a value "C:\Program Files"

MATLAB: Is it possible to customize the keyboard shortcuts in MATLAB 7.9 (R2009b) to reflect the key bindings used in MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a) or earlier releases

It is possible to customize the keyboard shortcuts in MATLAB 7.9 (R2009b). Visit the following documentation page for more information regarding customizing keyboard shortcuts:

 <http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/rn/br5ktrh-1.html#br6h4bl>

If you want to use the shortcuts that were the default on your platform in the earlier releases, it is possible to switch to those previous default shortcuts via the Keyboard Shortcuts Preference panel. To restore keyboard shortcuts those were the default before MATLAB 7.9 (R2009b):

1. Choose File > Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts.

2. From the Active settings drop-down menu, choose R2009a Windows Default Set, R2009a Macintosh Default Set, or R2009a UNIX Default Set, depending on the platform on which MATLAB is installed.

If you did not use the default keyboard shortcuts previously and want to revert to exactly those shortcuts, it is possible to download the old non-default shortcuts from MATLAB Central and load them into the Keyboard Shortcuts preference panel. The non-default configurations of the MATLAB Editor and the Command Window can be downloaded from the MATLAB Central post titled "MATLAB Desktop R2009a Non-Default Keyboard Shortcut sets" available at the following Web link:

If you were using the default keyboard shortcuts of a platform other than on which MATLAB was installed, it is possible to download the old default shortcuts for all the platforms from MATLAB Central and load them into the Keyboard Shortcuts preference panel. The default configurations of the MATLAB Editor and the Command Window across different platforms can be downloaded from the MATLAB Central post titled "MATLAB Desktop R2009a Default Keyboard Shortcut sets" available at the following web-link:
