Programming a GUI

After laying out the GUI and setting component properties, the next step is to program the GUI. You program the GUI by coding one or more callbacks for each of its components. Callbacks are functions that execute in response to some action by the user. A typical action is clicking a push button.

A GUI's callbacks are found in an M-file that GUIDE generates automatically. GUIDE adds templates for the most commonly used callbacks to this M-file, but you may want to add others. Use the M-file Editor to edit this file.

The following figure shows the Callback template for a push button.

To learn more about programming a GUI, see Creating a Simple GUI with GUIDE in the MATLAB Creating Graphical User Interfaces documentation.
