Popup message in Matlab Gui

ching l — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 14:29:03 -0400

Can anyone tell me which section in the matlab help file or what is the keyword to create a popup message window inside Gui?

I have a few pushbuttons on my Gui. I want to have a "warning popup message" when the pushbutton has been wrongly pressed etc.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Thanks.

Look up dialog box in the documentation. There are a few different types of dialog box, depending on what you want them for. The one you need right now is called warndlg.

Usually I know "popup" in combination with a popup-"menu".
Perhaps msgbox or warndlg helps?

Good luck, Jan

You can use msgbox()

msgbox(Message,Title,Icon) specifies which Icon to display in
the message box. Icon is 'none', 'error', 'help', 'warn', or
'custom'. The default is 'none'.
