load (COM) (External Interfaces Reference)

Initialize control object from file

Syntax

```
h.load('filename')
load(h, 'filename')
```

Description

h.load('filename') initializes the COM object associated with the interface represented by the MATLAB COM object h from file specified in the string filename. The file must have been created previously by serializing an instance of the same control.

load(h, 'filename') is an alternate syntax for the same operation.

Note The COM load function is only supported for controls at this time.

Examples

Create an mwsamp control and save its original state to the file mwsample:

f = figure('position', [100 200 200 200]);
h = actxcontrol('mwsamp.mwsampctrl.2', [0 0 200 200], f);
h.save('mwsample')

Now, alter the figure by changing its label and the radius of the circle:

h.Label = 'Circle';
h.Radius = 50;
h.Redraw;

Using the load function, you can restore the control to its original state:

h.load('mwsample');
h.get
ans = 
     Label: 'Label'
    Radius: 20
