I am trying to get value in edit3 textbox without using pushbutton
function edit3_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject handle to edit3 (see GCBO)
% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
% Hints: get(hObject,'String') returns contents of edit3 as text
% str2double(get(hObject,'String')) returns contents of edit3 as a double
a = str2num(get(handles.edit1,'String'));
b = str2num(get(handles.edit2,'String'));
c = a + b;
set(handles.edit3,'String',num2str(c));

function edit2_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
a = str2double(get(handles.edit1,'String'));
b = str2double(get(handles.edit2,'String'));
if isnan(a) || isnan(b) %empty or not number
return;
end
c = a + b;
set(handles.edit3,'String',num2str(c));
end
This callback will be invoked without needing a pushbutton. It does, however, require that the user presses Return in the edit box, or that the user clicks outside the edit box after having entered text in the box.
