Syntax

hover(testCase,comp)
hover(testCase,comp,location)

Description

hover(testCase,comp) performs a hover gesture on the UI component comp that supports this gesture.

hover(testCase,comp,location) specifies the location to hover at within the component. If you do not specify the location, MATLAB® hovers at the center of comp.

Input Arguments

Test case, specified as a matlab.uitest.TestCase object.

Component to hover on during test, specified as a UI component object that supports a hover gesture. Components that support hover gestures include Axes, UIAxes, PolarAxes, Panel, and Figure objects.

Supported ComponentTypical Creation Function
Axesaxes
Paneluipanel
Polar Axespolaraxes
UI Axesuiaxes
UI Figureuifigure

Location to hover at, specified as the coordinates of the hover point:

  • Axes and UI Axes — A 1-by-2 or 1-by-3 numeric array containing x-, y-, and optionally z-coordinates.

  • Polar Axes — A 1-by-2 numeric array containing θ- and r-coordinates.

  • Panel — A 1-by-2 numeric array containing x- and y-coordinates. Specify the coordinates of the point measured in pixels from the lower-left corner of the component.

  • UI Figure — A 1-by-2 numeric array containing x- and y-coordinates. Specify the coordinates of the point from the lower-left corner of the component.

Example: [32.5 13 0.25] (UI axes)

Example: [pi/2 0.5] (Polar axes)

Example: [100 200] (UI figure)

Examples

Create a UI axes and an interactive test case instance.

uiAx = uiaxes;
testCase = matlab.uitest.TestCase.forInteractiveUse;

Hover over the point defined by the axes coordinates (0.2, 0.4).

testCase.hover(uiAx,[0.2 0.4])

Create a UI figure and an interactive test case instance.

uiFig = uifigure;
testCase = matlab.uitest.TestCase.forInteractiveUse;

Hover over the point defined by the pixel coordinates (100, 200).

testCase.hover(uiFig,[100 200])
