animation timer bar graph matlab app designer in matlab

Here is an example of how you can create an animated timer bar graph in MATLAB App Designer:

main.m
classdef TimerBarGraph < matlab.apps.AppBase

    properties (Access = private)
        Timer
        TimerPeriod = 0.1;
        Iteration = 0;
        MaxIterations = 100;
    end

    methods (Access = private)

        function updatePlot(app)
            app.Iteration = app.Iteration + 1;
            bar(app.UIAxes, app.Iteration, 'b');
            ylim(app.UIAxes, [0, app.MaxIterations]);
            drawnow;

            if app.Iteration >= app.MaxIterations
                stop(app.Timer);
            end
        end

        function TimerFcn(app, ~, ~)
            updatePlot(app);
        end

        function startTimer(app, ~, ~)
            app.Timer = timer('ExecutionMode', 'fixedRate', 'Period', app.TimerPeriod, 'TimerFcn', @app.TimerFcn);
            start(app.Timer);
        end

    end

    % Callbacks that handle component events
    methods (Access = private)

        % Button pushed function: StartButton
        function StartButtonPushed(app, ~, ~)
            app.startTimer();
        end

        % Button pushed function: StopButton
        function StopButtonPushed(app, ~, ~)
            stop(app.Timer);
        end

        % Close request function: UIFigure
        function UIFigureCloseRequest(app, ~, ~)
            if isvalid(app.Timer)
                stop(app.Timer);
                delete(app.Timer);
            end
            delete(app);
        end
    end

end

In this code:

  1. The TimerBarGraph class defines the properties and methods needed to create an animated timer bar graph.
  2. The updatePlot method updates the bar graph with each timer iteration.
  3. The TimerFcn method is the callback function for the timer that calls the updatePlot method.
  4. The startTimer method initializes and starts the timer.
  5. Callback functions for the "Start" and "Stop" buttons are provided to start and stop the timer, respectively.
  6. The UIFigureCloseRequest method ensures that the timer is stopped and deleted when the app is closed.

You can customize this code further based on your specific requirements.
