MATLAB: Open (but no run) a *.m file via drag and drop – R2012b

command windowdrag and dropopen

Hello
How to modify the action "run" in "open" when you make a drag and drop of a *.m file in the "Command Window" ?
Thanks

I am not sure there is a documented way of doing that. But if you already have the editor open and if you drag it into the editor it will always open (not run).
As a workaround always keep a file open when you close MATLAB this way editor is always open and you can drag MATLAB files into it directly instead of the command line.
