right now I'm following an Matlab tutorial http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/creating_guis/brpat2g.html .
The Problem is my Matlab Version r2006a the GUIDE GUI Builder doesn't have an table tool. Does any one know how to figure out in which version it was introduced?
so long

The MathWorks have just put the documentation of past releases till R13sp2 online. You can check them here in order to find where uitable first appears.
uitable was useable before it appeared in the documentation, though it is only since R2008a that it is officially supported.

I'm looking for a method to programmatically change the focus to a different panel in the MATLAB App Designer. I have a push-button that I would like to use to shortcut the user to a specific panel in the same UI. My UI is arranged using a series of tab-panels, and I need a way to directly send the user to a different panel.
For normal (non App Designer) MATLAB UI components, I can use the command uicontrol(itemOfInterest); to give focus to a particular element of the UI, but this isn't possible with App Designer. Is there a specific command?
It seems that, for what concerns the App Designer, as of Matlab R2017a, this feature has not been implemented yet. Googling a little bit, I found this question, in which the OP basically asks the same. The provided (and accepted) answer is:
This functionality with "uicontrol" is currently unavailable in App
Designer. I have forwarded your feedback to our developers and they
will consider adding support for this in a future release of MATLAB.
With a little bit of patience, the focus support will be introduced in a new Matlab release. Meanwhile, I suggest you to do some research focusing on undocumented Matlab features and underlying Java components. With a little bit of luck and findjobj you could be able to achieve what you are looking for.
I am supposed to work with an existing code in my work and at some places the previous programmer has extensively used Fimath function. Unfortunately, I am not having the license for the Fixed Point Designer toolbox and was looking for some alternatives.
I tried getting the fimath.m file from another source but it is referencing to some embedded libraries in the toolbox.
Is there some other way in which I can bypass this problem?
Thank You
I was following a tutorial in matlab documentation at http://www.mathworks.com/help/vision/examples/automatically-detect-and-recognize-text-in-natural-images.html
There they use a function helperGrowEdges but I it is not being recognized right now. I verified that I have Computer Vision System Toolbox. I am unable to figure how to implement it. It says it 'Grow the edges outward by using image gradients around edge locations', but I am unable to figure out how to implement is well.
As hinted out by Naveh, It works those functions are present only in MATLAB 2014 version and not in older versions.
Older versions do not have that example as well when I try to open edit TextDetectionExample
This example first appears in release R2014a. helperGrowEdges is a helper function, which goes with the example. Unfortunately it does not get published in the documentation. The only way for you to see it is to get access to an installation of MATLAB R2014a with the Computer Vision System Toolbox, and do edit helperGrowEdges.
First off I'm not a regular Matlab user, so this might appear as a rather simple question, but how do you install Apps in Matlab R2012a? Is it even possible? I found a link for how to do it in R2012b here, but I can't find any guidelines on how to do it in R2012a.
I have a custom app that was sent to me by a colleague at another research institution, and I think they must have a more recent version of Matlab that us. His instructions were to go to the Apps tab in the tool bar and select Install Apps, but in R2012a, I can only see File, Edit, Debug, Parrallel, Desktop, Window and Help. I've also had a look in the Product Help guide in Matlab, but I couldn't find a relevant entry.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I believe MATLAB apps were introduced in R2012b, and that it's not possible to install or use them in earlier releases. You would need to contact your colleague, and ask them to supply an unpackaged version of the application (i.e. just the code).
I have inherited a pile of Matlab scripts that manually build a GUI using calls to uicontrol, uimenu, etc. Over the years we have needed to remove and add elements to the GUI and since all the positions are specified manually in the scripts, the layout hasn't really changed to accommodate the missing elements so it is really starting to look like a pile of trash.
Is there a way to automatically convert my matlab scripted gui into something I can use with guide? I would rather not have to start over...
GUIs generated with GUIDE are not much better than manually scripted ones (if not worse in my opinion in terms of maintainability).
The sad truth is that there are no builtin layout managers in MATLAB (there are user-contributed ones on FEX like border layout, gridbag layout and others). If you are refactoring the code, please consider using some sort of GUI layout manager.
To answer your question, afaik there is no automatic tool for such a conversion.
To be exact, MATLAB has some undocumented layout managers: uiflowcontainer and uigridcontainer. See this article by Yair Altman
Well, there is no automatic conversion utility but you dont need to create everything from scratch with GUIDE.
Execute your GUI so that it shows up and save the figure window as a fig file. This file then can be edited with guide.
However this needs manual adjustments in your code. Especially if you need access to handles and I am also not sure about the callback functions.
However, as Amro already pointed out, GUIDE is not a perfect solution.
