hello, Im and trying to repeat somethign that worked in GUIDE, but not in appdesigner: when the user presses a pushbutton on my GUI, a figure is created with a plot on it. I also want to have a checkbox and if the user selects it then perform some calcs on the data and display it.
fig=figure;
fig.Position = [300 500 1200 400];
ax2=subplot(1,2,2);
c2=improfile(I,x2,y2);
plot(ax2,c2,'color',[0.18 0.67 0.12]);
grid on;
title(ax2,'Vertical (ROI)','Color',[0.18 0.67 0.12])
c = uicontrol('Style', 'checkbox',...
'String', {'13.5% Width'},...
'Position', [100 3 80 20],...
'Callback', @(src,evt) calc13_5Width(src, evt,c2));
I then create a funtion (public) as:
function calc13_5Width(src, evt,c2);
disp('Here') %just testing for now
end
However i get the error message
Check for missing argument or incorrect argument data type in call to function 'calc13_5Width'.
Error in PhotonControl>@(src,evt)calc13_5Width(src,evt,c2) (line 4077)
'Callback', @(src,evt) calc13_5Width(src, evt,c2));

USe the debugger to check the cause of the problem. Type this in the command window:
dbstop if error
Run the code again. When Matlab stops at the error, check the locally used variables, most of all: c2
Does the same error occur, if you define the callback as:
'Callback', {@calc13_5Width, c2}, ...

Again: When do you get this error? When the callback is created or when it is called?
When does c2 exist? At creation time or when the callback is called? How did you check, that it is existing?
Error in PhotonControl>@(src,evt)calc13_5Width(src,evt,c2) (line 4077)
c = uicontrol('Style', 'checkbox',...
'String', {'13.5% Width'},...
'Position', [100 3 80 20],...
'Callback', @(src,evt) calc13_5Width(src, evt,c2)); % <<<
% Is this the line 4077?
"I do have a UIFigure which has a pushbutton on which invokes my code as above (although I do call a figure)" - Calling the callback of a GUI element of a figure from an uifigure sounds like a strange and indirect approach.
