Thread Subject: How to change a gui's figure icon

I am writing a large multi-windowed GUI in MATLAB and I
would like the window (figure) icon for each window to be
different.

What I mean when I say 'window icon' is the small picture
just to the left of the window's title, and the image that
shows up in the minimized version of the program on the
Windows taskbar.

I am familiar with adding icons to uibuttons, but do not
know how to change this property of a figure.

Thanks!
Daniel

warning('off','MATLAB:HandleGraphics:ObsoletedProperty:JavaFrame');
jframe=get(handles.fig,'javaframe');
jIcon=javax.swing.ImageIcon('C:\program
files\matlab\r2007b\icons\icon.gif');
jframe.setFigureIcon(jIcon);

(while supplies last)

Ok, tried it. But I receive the following error:

Error in ==> hddprofile_editor>setWindowTitleIcon at 71
jframe=get(handles.fig,'javaframe');

Apparently my handles structure contains no property 'fig'.
Any ideas? I am in R2007a.

Sorry, i pasted that out of a gui. handles.fig is the handle
of the figure whose icon you want to change.

Wow I didn't think that could be done at all. I have asked Mathworks
about that before and was told it can't be done.

I am considering selling some guis, so if I do that and pay the $15k+
I would be pretty annoyed that I couldn't brand it.

Thanks, matt_dash

You should be aware that by changing the icone you would
violate Mathworks license agreement.
