Hi, We're having a problem with a Matlab error in Matlab 2017a. Whenever we try to view a variable in the workspace, by double clicking on the variable in the Workspace panel, it opens the variable in a new window and displays an error message. The error message is entitled 'Variables' and reads 'readonly Error: Unexpected MATLAB expression. workspacefunc 350'. I can't interact with the variable window until I select ok. It also occurs when I open any variables within variables and periodically reappears if you leave variables open. Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks.

This error is usually caused by having user-defined functions by the name "builtin", "strjoin" or "strsplit".
If that is the case, these functions shadow built-in MATLAB functions resulting in this error. Try executing:
which -all builtin
which -all strjoin
which -all strsplit
to see if there are any user defined functions by this name. Renaming the user defined functions by these names should resolve the issue.
