save (COM) - Serialize control object to file

Syntax

Description

h.save('filename') saves the COM control object, h, to the file specified in the string, filename.

save(h, 'filename') is an alternate syntax for the same operation.

Note   The COM save function is only supported for controls at this time.

Tips

COM functions are available on Microsoft Windows systems only.

Examples

Create an mwsamp control and save its original state to the file mwsample:

f = figure('position', [100 200 200 200]);
h = actxcontrol('mwsamp.mwsampctrl.2', [0 0 200 200], f);
h.save('mwsample')

Now, alter the figure by changing its label and the radius of the circle:

h.Label = 'Circle';
h.Radius = 50;
h.Redraw;

Using the load function, you can restore the control to its original state:

h.load('mwsample');
h.get

MATLAB displays the original values:

ans = 
     Label: 'Label'
    Radius: 20
