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.
Java
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.
setPrompt – Setting the Matlab Desktop prompt
The Matlab Desktop's Command-Window prompt can easily be modified using some undocumented features
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.
Customizing Matlab's Workspace table
The Matlab Desktop's Workspace pane table can be customized, as described here
GUI integrated HTML panel
Simple HTML can be presented in a Java component integrated in Matlab GUI, without requiring the heavy browser control.
