Very nice, and quite useful, of course. The only design choice that I find a little unfortunate is that the formatting of the uicontrols (as pop-up menu, checkbox, etc...) is selected based on the data type of the initial field values. The consequence of this is that I can really only enter doubles and strings as field data.

Sometimes, however, I want the actual value of a field to be cell-valued, e.g., {'a','b','c'}. In your set-up, though, a cell array of strings always gets interpreted as a list of pop-menu options. The same goes with fields that are logical vectors. Sometimes I want a logical vector to be interpreted as the actual data and not to be as format specifiers.

I wonder if you could have had an input syntax like the following

settingsdlg(Scontent, Sformat)

where Scontent is a structure containing the desired field values and S.format is a structure with the same field names, but specifying whether to format as checkbox, pop-up menu, etc...

@Lauren,
Do you still have get that error? What version of MATLAB are you using? And what version of ndSparse?

You seem to be the only one with this problem, I'm afraid. It doesn't readily reproduce on my machine and I haven't received similar complaints.

Thank you very much.
