Desktop Tools and Development Environment
21-5
Close All Documents and Close Selected Documents Feature Added
When you have multiple documents open within a tool, such as M-files in the Editor/
Debugger, select File > Close to readily close selected files in that tool. Alternatively,
right-click the document bar to close all open documents or all open documents except the
selected document in that tool.
Accessibility Documentation Included
Accessibility features and assistive technologies are now part of the Desktop
documentation. In prior versions, they were documented in the general Release Notes.
New Look and Feel on Linux and Solaris Platforms
MATLAB has a new look and feel on the Linux operating system from Linus Torvalds
and the Sun Microsystems Solaris operating system that affects windows, decorations,
color schemes, and responsiveness of the interface in MATLAB.
Compatibility Considerations
All of the changes are cosmetic, except for file dialog boxes, like Open file. The new file
dialog boxes are more conventional and easier to use than in previous versions, and there
is no loss in functionality.
Invalid info.xml File on Path Now Generates an Error
When MATLAB finds an info.xml file on the search path or in the current directory, it
assumes the file is intended to add information to the Start button or the Help browser,
and automatically validates the file against the supported schema. If there is an invalid
construct in the info.xml file, MATLAB displays an error in the Command Window.
The error is typically of the form
XML-file failed validation against schema located in
...
XML-file name: full path to...\info.xml
and might appear when you start MATLAB, press the Start button, or in other
situations. For more information about the error and how to eliminate it, see Add Your
Own Toolboxes to the Start Button.
