uiwait

Create a line plot in a UI figure and display an alert dialog box. Specify a CloseFcn callback for the dialog box that calls the uiresume function when the user responds to it. Wait for the user to click OK in the dialog box or close it. When program execution resumes, display a message in the Command Window.

fig = uifigure;
fig.Position = [500 500 500 350]; 
ax = uiaxes(fig);
plot(ax,1:10)

uialert(fig,'A line plot was created in the axes.', ...
    'Program Information','Icon','info','CloseFcn','uiresume(fig)')

uiwait(fig)
disp('Program execution resumed')

Create a line plot in a figure and display a modal message dialog box. Wait for the dialog box to be deleted when the user clicks OK or closes it. When program execution resumes, display a message in the Command Window.

f = figure;
plot(1:10)
msgfig = msgbox('Operation was completed successfully!','Success','modal');
uiwait(msgfig)
disp('Program execution resumed.');

Create a push button with a callback that calls the uiresume function when it is clicked. Wait for the user to click Continue or close the figure window. Then display a message.

f = figure('Position',[500 500 400 300]);
c = uicontrol('String','Continue','Callback','uiresume(f)');
uiwait(f)
disp('Program execution has resumed');

Create a line plot in a UI figure.

fig = uifigure;
fig.Position = [500 500 500 350];
ax = uiaxes(fig);
plot(ax,1:10);

Create a five-second timeout. Then, close the figure by calling the close function from within a try block. If it has already been closed, the catch block prevents the error, Invalid figure handle, from displaying and allows the code to continue executing normally.

uiwait(fig,5)

close(fig)
