Creating Graphical User Interfaces

GUI with Multiple Axes

This example creates a GUI that contains two axes for plotting data. For simplicity, this example obtains data by evaluating an expression using parameters entered by the user.

Techniques Used in the Example

GUI-building techniques illustrated in this example include

• Controlling which axes is the target for plotting commands.
• Using edit text controls to read numeric input and MATLAB expressions.
