Icon Editor Implementation
The Icon Editor application uses three code files and three FIG-files that
are fully implemented in GUIDE. You can modify and enhance them in the
GUIDE environment if you choose. The files are:
•
guide_iconeditor.fig and guide_iconedito r.m —MainGUI,for
drawing and modifying icon files
•
guide_colorpalette.fig and guide_colorpalette.m — Palette for
selecting a current color
•
guide_toolpalette.fig and gu ide_toolpalette.m — Palette for
selecting one of four editing t ools
The c ode files contain the following function signatures and outpu t s (if any):
•
guide_iconeditor.m
