Advanced JIDE Property Grids
JIDE property grids can use complex cell renderer and editor components and can signal property change events asynchronously to Matlab callbacks
GUI
JIDE Property Grids
The JIDE components pre-bundled in Matlab enable creating user-customized property grid tables
Matlab and the Event Dispatch Thread (EDT)
The Java Swing Event Dispatch Thread (EDT) is very important for Matlab GUI timings. This article explains the potential pitfalls and their avoidance using undocumented Matlab functionality.
Inactive Control Tooltips & Event Chaining
Inactive Matlab uicontrols cannot normally display their tooltips. This article shows how to do this with a combination of undocumented Matlab and Java hacks.
Additional uicontrol tooltip hacks
Matlab's uicontrol tooltips have several limitations that can be overcome using the control's underlying Java object.
Continuous slider callback
Matlab slider uicontrols do not enable a continuous-motion callback by default. This article explains how this can be achieved using undocumented features.
Customizing listbox & editbox scrollbars
Matlab listbox and multi-line editbox uicontrols have pre-configured scrollbars. This article shows how they can be customized.
Rich Matlab editbox contents
The Matlab editbox uicontrol does not handle HTML contents as do other uicontrols. In this article I show how this limitation can be removed.
FindJObj GUI – display container hierarchy
The FindJObj utility can be used to present a GUI that displays a Matlab container's internal Java components, properties and callbacks.
FindJObj – find a Matlab component's underlying Java object
The FindJObj utility can be used to access and display the internal components of Matlab controls and containers. This article explains its uses and inner mechanism.
