That's a good use of the incrementer. If my example is the 0-order use, yours is the 1-order. I wonder what the next level is... Thanks for that idea, Brett from Pick of the Week.

One of the benefits I point out is the vastly under-utilized incrementer tools--few people know what they're for. I typically will increment an initial guess at a threshold for an image, for instance. But I also like to point out that one can get more creative with these buttons. For instance, if one wanted to try out our 6 different (IPT) algorithms for edge detection, the incrementer tools allow that, too: %% algs = {'Sobel','Prewitt','Roberts','LOG','Zerocross','Canny'}; incr = 1; %INCREMENT HERE imshow(edge(tissueMask,algs{incr})) title([algs{incr} ' Edge Detection']) Cheers, Brett Hey Ken and Mike,

%%
algs = {’Sobel’,'Prewitt’,'Roberts’,'LOG’,'Zerocross’,'Canny’};
incr = 1; %INCREMENT HERE
imshow(edge(tissueMask,algs{incr}))

Simulink parameters are an excellent usage of this! Guy, great point. Simulink parameters are an excellent usage of this!

Since I discovered the possibilities of this feature, I use it everytime I need to tune or debug a Simulink model. By writing a simple script, I can change the value of a parameter (using the "-+ feature"), simulate the model using SIM, plot the results and see the effect. click, click, click, done. It speeds up things by 1000%. My favorite element of the cell mode toolbar is the “-+” part.
