Using JIDE combo-boxes
Matlab includes many custom JIDE combo-box controls that can be used in Matlab GUIs out of the box.
Editable combo-box
Matlab’s popup menu (combo-box) control is quite limited in its abilities. This article explains how we can work around these limitations.
Editbox data input validation
Undocumented features of Matlab editbox uicontrols enable immediate user-input data validation
Rich-contents log panel
Matlab listboxes and editboxes can be used to display rich-contents HTML-formatted strings, which is ideal for log panels.
Variables Editor scrolling
The Matlab Variables Editor can be accessed to provide immediate scrolling to a specified cell location.
Function definition meta-info
There are multiple ways to retrieve meta-info about functions in Matlab.
Allocation performance take 2
The clear function has some non-trivial effects on Matlab performance.
