Yair Altman (4 days 23 hours ago): The default Java Look&Feel for UI buttons paints the border together with the contents, and apparently prevents changing both of them together (reference). Changing to a...
Jacob (5 days 8 hours ago): So, I’m having trouble finding information on this. If I change the border of a button, then change the background color, the border resets. Then I am not able to change the...
Sky (7 days 16 hours ago): Matlab seems to catch on to mustBeMember and offers tab completion options when it is used. classdef foo < matlab.mixin.SetGet properties Coordinates {mustBeMember(Coordinates,{...
Yair Altman (13 days 22 hours ago): Philip – perhaps you forgot to update the table’s model to a DefaultStyleTableModel. In any case, this topic is way outside the scope of this blog, which is...
Philip (13 days 22 hours ago): Yair, I am a bit of a novice at programming with Java. Would you please expound a bit more or provide an example on how to use JIDE’s CellStyle in MATLAB? I have successfully...
Yair Altman (18 days 9 hours ago): @Philip – in the Java-based uitable you can use JIDE’s CellStyle to customize specific cells. Refer to JIDE’s documentation for details. In the web-based...
Philip (18 days 10 hours ago): Yair, You may have addressed this already in the past, if so, please kindly point me to the appropriate article(s). My issue is with creating a table which has (not column but) cell...
Yair Altman (23 days 7 hours ago): The javacomponent function returns 2 objects: a Java reference and a Matlab container. Simply set the value of the Units property of the Matlab container to...
Neeks (23 days 12 hours ago): This looks elegant. Thank you. One issue I am not able to sort out – on maximizing the figure window the location of “javax.swing.JSliderR 21; object does not scale...
Xiangrui Li (28 days 4 hours ago): Hi Yair, Thank you for digging into this. It seems I need following to get CEF container = struct(controllerProps.Platfor mHost);
Yair Altman (28 days 15 hours ago): Matlab recently modified the internal structure. You can now access the web-window (CEF) object as follows: hFig = uifigure(...); warning off MATLAB:structOnObject % suppress...
Xiangrui Li (29 days 5 hours ago): It seems the`Container` is removed. I see this error in R2019b: container = controllerProps.Container; Reference to non-existent field 'Container'.
Tim (36 days 9 hours ago): Thank you for this post, it is very useful. It seems that when using plot3, if I have more than 25,000 points and I change my figure size or rotate the image, the MarkerHandle values...
Rohit (42 days 14 hours ago): How do we put “MJDimensionPicker” ; in a “TSdropDownButton” ? (As it is in [ View (Tab) –> Tiles (Column) –> Custom (Drop-Down Button)] ). Thanks again...
Yair Altman (44 days 23 hours ago): Andrea – sqlite4java is an open-source project (https://code.google.com/archi ve/p/sqlite4java). You can modify its code and/or submit an issue on that project’s...
