MATLAB: Using Export_fig to save a plot as it’s original file name

Question

So I'm trying to automate the saving of my plots with export_fig, but in my script i have declared a global variable as the file name (ex. plot title).

my code for the global variable looks like this:

% creates the global variable

global file_to_get;

% used to select the file path needed for uiimport

file_to_get = uigetfile({'*.csv*'}, 'Select the CSV File', 'file path');

Is there a way to use export_fig to save my plots as the file_to_get name? and then is there a way to add something to that title, for example file_to_get plot.jpg.

Thanks

Answer 1

outfilename = regexprep(file_to_get, '.csv', ' plot.jpg');
export_fig(outfilename, ....)
