Hello Together,
I am working on an interactive application using App Designer (MATLAB R2017b). I am doing the following sequence of operations:-
- Listing all the variables from the Model workspace and assigning them in the dropdown menu usinng the following callback function-
mdlWks = get_param('DummyModel','ModelWorkspace');
save(mdlWks,'Model_Workspace.mat');
load Model_Workspace.mat;
vars = evalin(mdlWks, 'whos');
cell_array = cell(size(vars));
for i=1:length(vars)
cell_array{i} = vars(i).name;
end
app.WksVarsDropDown.Items = cell_array;
2. Next, If I click on any of the items from the drop down menu, the value of that item should be displayed in the UITable. Now, having displayed the value of the variable, I want to have te flexibility to edit the value. For this, I am using the following callback function ;-
mdlWks = get_param('DummyModel','ModelWorkspace');
vars = evalin(mdlWks, 'whos');
cell_array = cell(size(vars));
for i=1:length(vars)
cell_array{i} = vars(i).name;
end
WksVars = app.WksVarsDropDown.Value;
assignin(mdlWks,'WksVars',WksVars);
for i = 1 : length(vars)
switch WksVars
case cell_array{i}
A = evalin(mdlWks,cell_array{i});
paramObj = A.Value;
app.UITable2.Data = paramObj;
ncols = size(app.UITable2.Data,2);
app.UITable2.ColumnEditable = true(1,ncols);
end
end
3. Having edited the value of one or more variables from the UITable element, I want is to save the changes to model workspace. For saving the model workspace I am using a pushbutton element, callback function for which is mentioned below.
mdlWks = get_param('DummyModel','ModelWorkspace');
mdlWks.DataSource = 'MAT-File';
mdlWks.FileName = 'Parameters_Model_Wks';
saveToSource(mdlWks);
The model workspace is not getting updated as per the changes, neither it is throwing any waring or error so that I can understand the issue.
I am not able to proceed further. Please guide me on this.
Thanking you in Anticipation!
