Philip (5 days 1 hour 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 (9 days 12 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 (9 days 12 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...
