MATLAB Central Newsreader - Rendering GUI components from callback

Rendering GUI components from callback

Kris Ezra — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 19:15:03 -0400

I am writing a GUI with dynamically updating components and
I need them to be generated from a button callback. I have
written the function and the pushbuttons will render, but
the panel I need to create will not. Any ideas?

I have the following code in the callback, and matlab throws
no errors which tells me that the variables and scope are
correct.

networkViewPanel =
uipanel(communications_panel,'Position',[20,panel_position(4)-365,400,345],'BorderType','etchedin');

Matlab allows me to get the panel properties, but it is not
drawing.

Have you tried issuing a drawnow command?

That should work :) Thank you! Been looking for that
forever! Couldn't ever find it in the online documentation!
