Doug’s Pick of the Week

MATLAB Basics: Change the string on a button when pushed

January t-shirt winner will be announced on Friday. There is no survey for this video, but you can still get in on last week’s survey to win a MATLAB t-shirt.

This two and a quarter minute video shows how to change the string on a button when pushed. Similar techniques can be used for lots of different GUI actions.
