I am sorry for asking the same questions which has been asked before. But the thing is I am not in matlab for a long and especially during trying to build a GUI I am crossing some problems which looks like complicated when l compare which C#.
Now I am using Matlab 7.12.0(R2011a) and I want to know the possibility to add tab in my GUI to make it more clear.
I am appreciate for answers which could give me an idea to figure out.
Thanks.
You can create tabs using uipanels where you toggle the visibility to reproduce the tab like behaviou, there are a few utilisties on the Matlab FEX.
To do this you need to be happy with creating GUI's using code only (no guide).
If you do want an easy interactive way of creating a GUI with tabs then I have my own commercial GUI toolbox that creates very nice tabs.

Perhaps some of you used PETOOL. It is available here (for free): here
Looking at some tutorials and manual found here, the interface should look like this:
My interface however looks like this:
I am missing all the variable parameters that apparently should be there. I have never used this software before, so perhaps I am missing something obvious? Thanks for any help.
I was getting the same problem in 2018b. I opened up the GUI for mainwindow.fig in GUIDE and saw that panels were covering all of the buttons. If you right click on each panel and then "send to back", it will move the panel object to the background. Then resave the figure.
I am pretty new to MATLAB GUI. I've attempted to teach it to myself the last few weeks so I can understand and improve some code that is being developed where I work. GUI is still a fairly new concept to me.
I am wondering: I need the command window to output the mean of a set of data according to a function that is called by pressing a button on the GUI. Where would I include this code and how should I go about it?
Thanks
You can debug the code by using 'disp' or 'fprintf' functions. Notice that converts your content to compatible with the function.
I'm writing a program who will generate a couple of figures and I want to dock them all together. I can, to dock them, use the command:
set(fig1,'WindowStyle','docked');
set(fig2,'WindowStyle','docked');
etc.
But I can't find how to manage the layout of the figures inside the container or even the container size from the code. Is there a way to do it?
You cannot set the Position property when figures are docked.
From Docking Figures in the Desktop:
If WindowStyle is set to docked,
MATLAB automatically sets DockControls to on.
You cannot set the DockControls property to off.
You cannot set the figure Position property.
As for laying out the figures, you could use subplot to display multiple plots in one figure, which you can dock.
There's no documented way to programmatically set the docking group of figures.
However, I believe #Yair Altman's setFigDockGroup, available from MATLAB Central File Exchange, enables you to do it (by manipulating undocumented properties of the figures and the MATLAB desktop).
Even if it doesn't quite do what you need, I would guess that by looking through that code you would find a way to do it (although you might need to be comfortable with a bit of Java).
There is an undocumented way to achieve this. You can get inspiration from FileExchange: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/46352-editor-session-manager.
This is saving the layout for the Editor Group.
One could adapt for a figure group.
Why doesn't Matlab put your variable's names on the top of it's suggestion like Eclipse. It's not smart to put everything in alphabetical order. Scrolling down to the function/variable you are looking for sometimes takes more time than typing it yourself. Besides it should also complete a function by writing the parenthesis and placing the courser in the middle of the parenthesis. Is there any way I can change the preferences to that it would act like Eclipse?
In short: No.
Matlab is not eclipse and it will never be. M-code is not Java code.
If you want to you can use eclipse to edit your m-files, however it will not behave as you describe in your question. This is because m-code is not as strict as for example Java, this is on one side the downside of Matlab as you describe above, however the positive side of this is that it offers flexibility during development.
Using a tab after typing some characters would narrow the possibilities for auto-fill, if you have selected this property in the Preferences-Keyboard window.
How can I create tabs in matlab gui?
I did something like this a while ago...
I mean I created some menus at top of my GUI and then pressing each menu will set visible property of some controls on and the others get off
that way is useful for small GUIs but in beag GUIs it encounters problems and editing the GUI gets hard
I need someway to create seperate GUIs acting just like Mozilla tabs
Is there anyway to create that?
Tabs aren't officially supported yet, even though there exists the semi-documented function uitab. Note that in 2012a it warns you that the function will change.
However, there is a very nice submission on the File Exchange, the GUI layout toolbox that comes with tab functionality.
Matlab supports tabs from R2014b
See uitabgroup
