Looking to convert a GUI into the AppDesigner platform, I am not able to execute the 'imshow' utility in appdesigner, any ideas?

 Accepted Answer

The ability to show images is new in R2016b, so you need to be on that release.
You use imshow by explicitly parenting to the uiaxes.
imshow('cameraman.tif','Parent',app.UIAxes)

Thank You!

'Parent' is which container object the imshow should cause the image to be displayed into. imshow() requires that its parent be either a traditional axes or a UI Axes.

Thank you! Now is clear for me!
on using this command i only getting a black image
Try reading it into an image variable first with imread(). Then check the values to make sure they're not all zero. Maybe you accidentally overwrote cameraman.tif when you were doing your coding experimentation.
thankyou
I = imshow('image.jpg', 'Parent', app.image_view)
app.image_view.XLim = [0 I.XData(2)];
app.image_view.YLim = [0 I.YData(2)];
this code worked for me
thank you
