Description

guide displays the GUI Layout Editor open to a new untitled FIG-file.

guide('filename.fig') opens the FIG-file named filename.fig. You can specify the path to a file not on your MATLAB path.

guide('figure_handles') opens FIG-files in the Layout Editor for each existing figure listed in figure_handles. MATLAB copies the contents of each figure into the FIG-file, with the exception of axes children (image, light, line, patch, rectangle, surface, and text objects), which are not copied.
