Use variable values froma code block directly in a Live Script text cell (inline evaluation)

41 views (last 30 days)
MATLAB help states that using backticks around a variable name will have it replaced with its value when its inline in a text block.I am using the Live Editor and saving as an mlx file. Below is an image of a section of code and I want to state the altitude in a text block. An extensive search of the internet provided these methods but none of them work. The variable name is not replaced by the value. Has anyone else tried this and had it work successfully? I prefer this to a statement in the code to write a sentence, its just cleaner overall. Any suggestions. tips or known examples that work? Trying out 2025b, does not work on 2023b either. Any help greatly appreciated!

As far as I know, there is no way to substitute in variables in Live Script.
Are you possibly looking at the instructions for using publish ?

You are right, I thought it was from MATLAB help but I used CoPilot Chat to answer the question. CoPilot states the following. Did it just make it up?
In MATLAB Live Editor, you can display a variable’s value inline inside a text box (formatted text cell) using inline evaluation.Method 1 – Backticks (Live Editor Inline Evaluation)
MATLAB Live Editor supports inline variable evaluation using backticks:

I believe it just made that stuff up.
