Change the size of an icon

Hello,

is there a way to change the size of the icon of the window when using the function uiconfirm or uialert.

It would also help to resize the whole window of uiconfirm or uialert.

Thanks!

According to the documentation you can provide your own icon: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/uiconfirm.html

You can provide a uifigure as input also. What happens, if you set its size accordingly?

I´m using my own icon which size is a lot bigger than display in the uiconfirm window.

The uifigure is only the window where the confirmation box will be displayed. The size of the uifigure does not change the size of the confirmation box or the icon.

Did you take a look into the code of uialert? It should be easy to create a copy and to modify it according to your needs.

I just made a quick look inside the function. I think this goes beyond my programming skills but I will try...

I tried to figure out how to change the behaviour of the icon but I don't think it could be modified. The last function which will handle the display of the uiconfirm box is the function message.publish. But Matlab does not allow to go deeper into the code than message. Message only bring an comment with the following content:

%MESSAGE Internal utility to access translated message strings

% MSGOBJ = MESSAGE(MSGID,PARAMS) constructs an object that includes

% localized text associated with identifier MSGID.

message() pulls information out of a language-specific message database, and does not do any UI work itself.
