How to control the apperance of a "ui control" from another gui?

Basically, I have 2 GUIs opened at the same time: GUI1 and GUI2. GUI1 includes a "Static Text" while GUI2 includes a "Push Button". I would like the Color property of the Static Text in GUI1 to change when I push the Push Button on GUI2

Please Advise

from gui2 : Since version R2014b :

a=findall(groot, 'Name', 'myguide1'); %myguide1 is the file name for guide1
set(findobj(a(1),'Tag','text1'),'BackgroundColor','r')%text1 is the value tag for the Static Text in GUI1

Earlier versions:

a=findall(0, 'Name', 'myguide1'); %myguide1 is the file name for guide1
set(findobj(a(1),'Tag','text1'),'BackgroundColor','r')%text1 is the value tag for the Static Text in GUI1

In R2014b onwards you can still use 0 instead of groot. That might not be supported eventually, but it is not marked for removal yet.
