Additional uicontrol tooltip hacks
Matlab's uicontrol tooltips have several limitations that can be overcome using the control's underlying Java object.
uicontrol
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.
GUI integrated HTML panel
Simple HTML can be presented in a Java component integrated in Matlab GUI, without requiring the heavy browser control.
GUI integrated browser control
A fully-capable browser component is included in Matlab and can easily be incorporated in regular Matlab GUI applications. This article shows how.
Customizing Matlab labels
Matlab's text uicontrol is not very customizable, and does not support HTML or Tex formatting. This article shows how to display HTML labels in Matlab and some undocumented customizations
uicontrol side-effect: removing figure toolbar
Matlab's built-in uicontrol function has a side-effect of removing the figure toolbar. This was undocumented until lately. This article describes the side-effect behavior and how to fix it.
Setting listbox mouse actions
Matlab listbox uicontrol can be modified to detect mouse events for right-click context menus, dynamic tooltips etc.
