Hi,
I think you have to overload the subsasgn function
There you see the following example:
See how MATLAB calls subsasgn for the expression:
A.field = B;
The syntax A.field = B calls A = subsasgn(A,S,B) where S.type = '.' and S.subs = 'field'.
So it can be tricky to overload it probably.

Right, subsasgn() if the object appears on the left side of an assignment, subsref() otherwise.
