Thread Subject: GUI question

Hi All,

I got an question about my GUI matlab,

If I got two axes, if I want to one of the axes to display
an img, how can I write it in code, pls,

many thx...

And also when I use the filesparts function, when I press
the cancelbutton

I get this error~~


?? Error using ==> fileparts at 17
Input must be a row vector of characters.

Error in ==> appl>browse_Callback at 143
[pathstr,name,ext,versn] = fileparts(get
(handles.inputimg_ed,'string'));

Error in ==> gui_mainfcn at 96
        feval(varargin{:});

Error in ==> appl at 42
    gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

??? Error while evaluating uicontrol Callback


Can you pls help me to solve it?











Here's my code

function browse_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject handle to browse (see GCBO)
% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version
of MATLAB
% handles structure with handles and user data (see
GUIDATA)
[pathstr,name,ext,versn] = fileparts(get
(handles.inputimg_ed,'string'));
if ~isempty(pathstr),
    pathstr = [pathstr '\'];
end
try
    [file,path] = uigetfile([pathstr '*.jpg'],'Select an
image');
    set(handles.inputimg_ed,'string',[path file]);
    info = imfinfo([path file]);
    set(handles.width_ed,'string',info.Width);
    set(handles.height_ed,'string',info.Height);
    imshow([path file]);
catch
end

Answer to your first question

axes(handles.axes1); %assuming axes1 is the name of the
first %axes
imshow(yourimage);

What is the documented output result when you cancel a uigetfile
dialog?

Hi Walter,

Thx for your reply first.
It was used in the Browse button, whem i press the button,
it was supposed to select an image file and if I selected a
file, it will display the path of the file in an edit box,
and diplay the details of the img and the actual img.

But I i press the cancel button, the edit box which used to
display the path of the file is disappeareed and when I
press the button again, I got this error..

Thanks for your time and help

You use fileparts -first- and then you use uigetfile. So any
problem with uigetfile will not be reflected until the -next-
time you call the function.

To answer my hint to you myself: when the user cancels
uigetfile, the return value is the -number- 0, not
a string. You then store that 0 in a handle, and the next
call around, you pull the numeric 0 out and try to use it
in fileparts, which promptly complains because you have not
passed fileparts a string.

It's issues like this that make me wish MATLAB were a strongly typed
language like most other programming languages, where you were
required to declare variables of a certain type before you could use
them, and they maintained that type every time you used them. I know
you give up some flexibility in being able to write fast, sloppy code
but other languages agree that that "advantage" does not outweigh the
potential problems it causes.

Hi Walter,
Thx again for the reply, I edited the code as below, now i
dont have the error, but i can't use the browse button if
I press the cancel, Do you know how can I still use the
browse button even I press the cancel button

try
    [pathstr,name,ext,versn] = fileparts(get
(handles.inputimg_ed,'string'));
    if ~isempty(pathstr),
        pathstr = [pathstr '\'];
    else
        [pathstr,name,ext,versn] = fileparts(get
(handles.inputimg_ed,'string'));
    end
    [file,path] = uigetfile([pathstr '*.jpg'],'Select an
image');
    if isequal(pathstr,0)
        set(handles.inputimg_ed,'string','cancelled');
    else
        set(handles.inputimg_ed,'string',[path file]);
    end
    info = imfinfo([path file]);
    set(handles.width_ed,'string',info.Width);
    set(handles.height_ed,'string',info.Height);
    imshow([path file]);
catch



btw, do you know why I got an Warning: Single line Edit
Controls can not have multi-line text.
