Making Multiple GUIs Work Together

GUI’s data is missing, the dialog box displays an error in the Command
Window that describes proper usage and then exits.
Managing the Text Change Dialog
1 In the P roperty Inspector for the Text Change dialog box’s figure, set the
WindowStyle property to 'Modal'. This ensures that when the dialog box
is active the user cannot interact with other figures.
2 Call uiwait in the OpeningFcn of the dialog box to put off calling the output
function until
uiresume is called. This keeps the invocation call of the
GUI from returning until that time:
function changeme_dialog_ OpeningFcn(hObject,eventdata,handles,varargin)
.
.
.
uiwait(hObject);
.
.
.
3 Invoke uiresume within CloseRequestFcn for the figure, the Cancel
button, and the OK button. Every callback in which the GUI needs to
close should call
uiresume:
function button Canc el_Callback(hObject,eve ntdata,handles)
uiresume(handles.figure);
function fig ure_ CloseRequestFcn(hObject ,eventdata,handles)
uiresume(hObject);
function but tonO K_Callback(hObject,even tdata,handles)
