Cookie (75 days 21 hours ago): If you have the parallel toolbox there is a method byteArray = distcompserialize64(myData) which appears to function the same as getByteStreamFromArray()> but does not seem to...
Enrico Segre (77 days 9 hours ago): Actually, here you’re talking, AFAIU, only of callbacks fired by events generated in Matlab graphic windows. I argue that they a little special by themselves, and...
Nina797 (88 days 4 hours ago): Hey Yair, I really appreciate your fantastic blog! I had no idea these amazing features were out there, and many of them are exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thanks again!
Yair Altman (132 days 3 hours ago): see the details in my reply above
Gehan (132 days 3 hours ago): The link at https://www.mathworks.com/matl abcentral/fileexchange/30672-m xgetpropertyptr no longer contain the files mxGetPropertyPtr.c mxGetPropertyPtr.h I downloaded the folder....
Yair Altman (132 days 3 hours ago): I believe that you are referring to James Tursa’s submission – you can get it here: https://www.mathworks.com/matl abcentral/fileexchange/30672-m xgetpropertyptr....
Gehan Abouelseoud (132 days 4 hours ago): These files are no longer available what can I do? mxGetPropertyPtr.c mxGetPropertyPtr.h
Yair Altman (177 days 9 hours ago): @Bob – you are mistaken: s=warning(...) returns the warnings state as it was before the state was modified, so my code is correct. There is no need for a separate call to...
Bob Pownalll (179 days 3 hours ago): Thanks! I was trying to figure out how to do exactly this (i.e. Use a try / catch block with something that generated a warning, not an error) and you pointed me to a solution!...
Gianmarco (200 days 9 hours ago): Hi Yair, what about if I would like to set a specific background and font color to the table row header?
Antonio (220 days 8 hours ago): Note Intel’s MKL implementations of BLAS/LAPACK are already multi-threaded, so it is likely that you won’t achieve a vast improvement (the overall performance could even...
Yair Altman (264 days 7 hours ago): which Matlab version are you using?
Matlab-user (264 days 7 hours ago): I am trying to do it using uipushtool since uisplittool is not supported anymore. I am able to insert the image icon in the toolbar, but not sure how to get the dropdown (trying...
Yair Altman (289 days 2 hours ago): @Peter – I’m happy to hear that you found my work useful. Feel free to use my algorithm and code for any non-commercial research usage. I just ask that you add...
Niko (297 days 2 hours ago): jTabGroup = getappdata(handle(hTabGroup),' JTabbedPane'); doesn’t work anymore in R2023b 🙁 when i do jTabGroup = findjobj(hTabGroup,'class','MJ TabbedPane'); I get an object of...
