Thread Subject: Plot Titles With GUIDE

Is it standard practice to use a "Static Text" control for
axes titles/x,y labels in a GUI? Or is there some way to get
the title() function to actually do something?

Thanks,

Dave

ah, so i was confused by using imshow as my first example in
a GUI. The title worked fine with a normal plot. Still, it
seems you can either use the real title or fix a static text
box - is it just preference? Or is one better than the other?

You can use title with imshow() also, but indirectly.

You can use the options 'Parent',h to tell imshow() which axes with the
handle 'h' to display on.

Then use title(h,'the title') to put a title on the axes which now contains
the output from imshow()

Here is the code:

figure;
ha=axes;
I = imread('cameraman.tif');
imshow(I) ;
title(ha,'title here');
