Is it possible to have MATLAB change the whole Desktop color scheme (so instead of these XP-colors on Linux, colors that are more like MATLAB on Mac?)

I can’t seem to wrap my head around the needed Java methods to actually change the general UI.

@Mimi – I don’t understand. Please post the code that you are using.

Hi, Thanks for this code!

It works, except when I use the %% to divide parts of an m-file. The part that I want to modify still has a mother-of-pearl colored background ( I’d prefer it to be black.)

How do I change this??

Thanks again.

You can underline Matlab Command-Window text using the CPRINTF utility, as described here: http://undocumentedmatlab.com/blog/cprintf

Cameron – I don’t think you can set the bg transparency

Hi Yair.
Thanks for your prompt reply.
As I am working with Matlab 7.0.4 (my fault, I know…), findjobj() is encountering all kinds of compatibility problems. I might try to debug it sometime.
Anyway, I will be looking forward for your next posts.
