Making Tables with Subcategories
Show older comments
I am trying to make a table with subcategories and cannot find it in the documentation. So all of these variables shown are structs identical to this:
[TestDurs.FE{1},TestDurs.VE{1},TestDurs.C{1}] = FE_VE_Breakdown(TestDursBL,GroupNumber);
[TestDurs.FE{2},TestDurs.VE{2},TestDurs.C{2}] = FE_VE_Breakdown(TestDursMID,GroupNumber);
[TestDurs.FE{3},TestDurs.VE{3},TestDurs.C{3}] = FE_VE_Breakdown(TestDursEOT,GroupNumber);
each struct has 3 subcategories consisting of a vector with 3 components. I was wondering if there is a way to show the subcategories under each overarching variable in the command window rather than the {1x1 struct} line.
T = table(TestDurs,VelAvg,MvmtTim,DwellTim,DwellSeg,Error,Lifts)

It's not really clear what you call a category or subcategory. structures don't have categories. perhaps, you mean fields.

Ryan, you are correct, maybe. If you really have only one row in your table, you may be better off making a scalar struct of scalar structs. And if you are making a table of tables only to get nicely-formatted output, you may eventually end up disappointed. The display of a table is sometimes not "pretty" enough for reports.
