How to read a numerical value from a static text box?

I tried it like this, but it won't use the value to calculate and plot the sine wave.
function pushbutton2_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
f=num2str(get(handles.text6,'String'));
t=0:0.01:1;
b=sin(2*pi*f*t);
axes(handles.axes1);
plot(b);
This is where I calculate the f, with another pushbutton
function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
r=handles.edit1;
c=handles.edit2;
f=1/(2*pi*r*c);
set(handles.text6,'String',strcat(num2str(f*1000,2),' Hz'))

For general advice and examples for how to create a GUI (and avoid using GUIDE), have look at this thread.

You need to strip the unit from the char array. Best practice is to keep numeric fields as pure as possible. With the uifigure-tools it is possible to enforce this during input, but in this case you need to remove it yourself:
function pushbutton2_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
f=get(handles.text6,'String');%retrieve value from text field
f=strrep(f,'Hz','');%remove unit
f=num2str(f);%convert to value
t=0:0.01:1;
b=sin(2*pi*f*t);
plot(t,b,'Parent',handles.axes1);
% ^^ are you sure you don't want this instead of only b?
end
