uiaeroclimb

Create climb rate indicator component

Syntax

climbrate = uiaeroclimb

climbrate = uiaeroclimb(parent)

climbrate = uiaeroclimb( ___ ,Name,Value)

Description

climbrate = uiaeroclimb creates a climb rate indicator in a new figure. MATLAB^® calls the uifigure function to create the figure.

The climb rate indicator displays measurements for an aircraft climb rate in ft/min.

The needle covers the top semicircle, if the velocity is positive, and the lower semicircle, if the climb rate is negative. The range of the indicator is from –Maximum feet per minute to Maximum feet per minute. Major ticks indicate Maximum/4. Minor ticks indicate Maximum/8 and Maximum/80.

Note

Use this function only with figures created using the uifigure function. Apps created using GUIDE or the figure function do not support flight instrument components.

climbrate = uiaeroclimb(parent) specifies the object in which to create the climb rate indicator.

climbrate = uiaeroclimb( ___ ,Name,Value) specifies climb rate indicator properties using one or more Name,Value pair arguments. Use this option with any of the input argument combinations in the previous syntaxes.

Examples

Create Climb Rate Indicator Component

Create a climb rate indicator component named climbrate. By default, the function creates a uifigure object for the indicator object.

climbrate = uiaeroclimb

climbrate = 
  ClimbIndicator (0) with properties:

      ClimbRate: 0
    MaximumRate: 2000
       Position: [100 100 120 120]

  Use GET to show all properties

Create Figure Window and Climb Rate Indicator Component

Create a figure window to contain the climb rate indicator component, then create an climb rate indicator component named climbrate.

f = uifigure;
climbrate = uiaeroclimb(f)

climbrate = 
  ClimbIndicator (0) with properties:

      ClimbRate: 0
    MaximumRate: 2000
       Position: [100 100 120 120]

  Use GET to show all properties

Input Arguments

parent — Parent container

Figure object (default) | Tab object | Panel object | ButtonGroup object | GridLayout object

Parent container, specified as a Figure object created using the uifigure function or one of its child containers: Tab, Panel, ButtonGroup, or GridLayout. If you do not specify a parent container, MATLAB calls the uifigure function to create a new Figure object that serves as the parent container.

Name-Value Arguments

Specify optional pairs of arguments as Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN, where Name is the argument name and Value is the corresponding value. Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the pairs does not matter.

Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose Name in quotes.

Output Arguments

climbrate — Climb rate indicator component

object

Climb rate indicator component, returned as an object.
