Hi,
I am using matlab into a labview program and I need to save figures. I have a variable which contain the name I want to use to save the file but I can't use this variable into the function:
fileName = strcat(numberOfBeams, 'RPM vs Volt');
saveas(gcf, [dirfig, fileName, 'png']);
The code gives an error... But it works if don't use the variable
saveas(gcf, [dirfig, 'RPM vs Volt TEST', 'png']);
Thanks a lot for your help !

Try this:
folder = dirfig;
baseFileName = sprintf('%d RPM vs Volt.png', numberOfBeams);
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
saveas(gcf, fullFileName);
% Or even better:
export_fig(fullFileName);
