I have programmed some calculations in my gui, so it takes some time and then displays the result. Problem is that it doesn't show anything 'BUSY' during this period.. this may sometimes lead to repetetive commands being given.
any comments?

I think this is what you are looking for:

Adjusting the busy action of your callback should get it to work. If you need more help let me know.

You can use waitbar(), or you can set the figure pointer to 'watch' http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/creating_plots/f5-35149.html, or you can update a graphical element and drawnow() after the update, or you can disp() or fprintf() to the command window. You can also set the Enable property of buttons and menus to 'off', or you can create modal windows.
