duplicate tab:how know reference object?

 obj = allchild(app.Tab_X);
 newtab = uitab(app.TabGroup,'Title',"XX");     % Create a new tab with the same title
 copyobj(obj,newtab); 

but what is the reference this object?

I don't think they have the same name as the original' ...

example: in this example i duplicate chart in other tab..but how can i know the referenze this Axis?

[piero]

i find this solution:

h=findobj(newtab)
h = 

  9×1 graphics array:

  Tab                 (CL)
  GridLayout
  UIAxes              (Equity)
  UIAxes              (Equity)
  UIAxes              (Equity)
  UIAxes              (Equity)
  Label               (gg Vis)
  NumericEditField    (250)
  Button              (DRAW)

h(3) is the reference axis

or esist better method to catch it?

Answer 1

Better than findobj() is to capture the output from copyobj():

new_obj = copyobj(obj,newtab);

[piero]

ok but if i wnt to catch reference to axis (in my example is h(3)

how can i do it?

this is your new_obj..(is tab in the pics)

How can i catch reference of uiaxis? (4 axis)

[Voss]

Do it the same way you would've done it wih the output of findobj() I guess

ax = new_obj(strcmp(get(new_obj,'Type'),'axes'))

thanks..

last question: How can I distinguish 2 objects that are called the same?

Example: uinumericeditfield ..(there are two)

[Voss]

That's a good question. The best way would be to create each object individually, rather than using copyobj to copy everything in the tab, storing the new objects as appropriately-named app properties (perhaps appending each to an array of similar objects).

For example:

% suppose you have an array of editfields already created, called app.editfields
% copy the first one to newtab:
app.editfields(end+1) = copyobj(app.editfields(1), newtab);

Similarly for any other object you want to copy and keep track of.

it's so difficult :((



    newtab = uitab(app.TabGroup_Instrum,'Title',cat(i));     % Create a new tab with the same title

    copyobj(obj,newtab);  

   ef = uieditfield(newtab,"numeric")
   ef.Value=30;
   copyobj(ef, newtab);

    h=findobj(newtab);


    h

     end   
     
 
     
     

     
     two problem :
     1) it didn't replace the editfields but added others
     2)it added 2 for me even though I only added 1
     

[Voss]

You created two edit fields in newtab

% create an edit field in newtab:
ef = uieditfield(newtab,"numeric")
% copy that ef to newtab:
copyobj(ef, newtab);

[Voss]

The solution, as I said, is not to use findobj() but to store things in a methodical fashion.

If you're going to use copyobj(), then capture its output, as I showed before.

hi,,,,, I have another small obstacle

i've selected "Fdax" tab.....i press "DRAW"...how can i call a function with callback method? ..

If I were in "aggregate" it would call the "callback" function and the problem would not exist

the variable :bb(n) is the arrayreference of the 6 button "Draw"

[Voss]

So you have 6 Draw buttons and you need to make each one do something different, is that right?

(Option 1) When you create each Draw button (e.g., by copyobj) set the new button's callback to an appropriate function.

(Option 2) Alternatively, have each Draw button execute the same callback and figure out what to do inside that callback, based on which tab contains the Draw button whose callback is currently executing.

Option 1:

newobj = copyobj(allchild(tab),newtab);
newdrawbutton = % figure out which element of newobj is the new Draw button
switch newtab
    case app.FDAXtab % handle to a tab
        newdrawbutton.ButtonPushedFcn = @callback_for_FDAX_draw;
    case app.Aggregatetab % handle to another tab
        newdrawbutton.ButtonPushedFcn = @callback_for_Aggregate_draw;
    case % etc.
        % ...
end

Option 2:

function draw_button_callback(app,evt)
switch get(gcbo,'Parent')
    case app.FDAXtab % handle to a tab
        % code for what should be done when Draw button 
        % in FDAX tab is pushed goes here
    case app.Aggregatetab % handle to another tab
        % code for what should be done when Draw button 
        % in Aggregate tab is pushed goes here
    case % etc.
        % ...
end
end
