MATLAB: Read a directory path starting from a subfolder

folderMATLABpath

Is there a way I can read a directory path starting from a subfolder:

folder = 'W:\Códigos\Matlab\Lee Frame\New\Images\Deformations'

I know it's possible to do something like that is Fortran (Ansys APDL):

folder = '..\Lee Frame\New\Images\Deformations'

My '.m' file is in the folder 'W:\Códigos\Matlab\Lee Frame\New'. I need that because I'm using different computers.

I got it doing the following:

[pwd '/Imagens/Deformações']

So I can save the figures named file:

saveas(FigHandle,fullfile([pwd '/Imagens/Deformações'],file))

But, if there is a better way of doing this, please let me know.

% Directory
directory = 'C:\Datasets\nyu\train\';
img_dir = fullfile(directory, 'image_02');
depth_dir = fullfile(directory, 'depth');
image_rgb_info  = dir( fullfile(img_dir, '*.jpg'));
image_rgb_filenames = fullfile(img_dir, {image_rgb_info.name} );
image_depth_info = dir( fullfile(depth_dir, '*.png'));
image_depth_filenames = fullfile(depth_dir, {image_depth_info.name} );

MATLAB: Use string to define path for uigetfile

There are two methods:

% Folder is not a cell string and not the name "pwd":
Folder = 'C:\Users\xxx\Documents\DTU\SAXS\folder1';
[filename, dirname] = uigetfile(fullfile(Folder, '*.txt'), 'select file')

This does not work if you want to provide a list of accepted file extensions. Then you can specify the initial folder as 3rd argument:

Folder = 'C:\Users\xxx\Documents\DTU\SAXS\folder1';
[filename, dirname] = uigetfile({'*.txt', 'Text-files (*.txt)'; ...
                                 '*.asc', 'ASCII files (*.asc)'; ...
                                 '*.*',   'All Files (*.*)'}, 'select file', Folder)
%                                                                            ^^^^^^
