15 Examples of GUIs Created Programmatically
The GUI toolbar has two buttons:

performs the same function as the Open menu item. It
displays a dialog from which you can open files on your com puter.

performs the same function as the Print menu item. It
opens the Print dialog. Clicking Yes in the Print dialog prints the plot.

• Passing input arguments to the GUI when it is opened
• Obtaining output from the GUI when it returns
• Shielding the GUI from accidental changes
• Running the GUI across multiple platforms
• Creating menus
• Creating toolbars
