create a function for a gui in matlab

To create a function for a GUI in Matlab, you should follow these steps:

  1. Create a new function in Matlab, providing a name for the function and the input/output arguments.
main.m
function [outputArg1,outputArg2] = guiFunction(inputArg1,inputArg2)

2 lines
  1. Define the code that will be executed when the function is called. This code should include the necessary instructions to create the GUI and set up any necessary callbacks.
main.m
function [outputArg1,outputArg2] = guiFunction(inputArg1,inputArg2)
% Create the GUI figure
fig = uifigure;

% Add UI components to the figure
btn = uibutton(fig,'push',...
              'Position',[100 100 100 22],...
              'Text','Click me!',...
              'ButtonPushedFcn',@myCallback);

% Define the callback function
function myCallback(src,event)
    disp('Button clicked!');
end

end

  1. Pass in any necessary variables to the function and call the function from your main script or command window.
main.m
% Call the function
guiFunction(inputArg1,inputArg2);

3 lines

Note that you will also need to define and use the handles structure to pass data between the GUI components and the main function.
