Hi,
I'm trying to clear GUI variables. From what I understand, each callback function has its own workspace and separate global workspace. I'd like to clear a specific callback variables with a push button. (Callback function is blockremover_callback, I'd like to reset with a push button).
Thanks!
function clearscreen_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
global xy h binary
%evalin('base','clear h')
clear blockremover_callback
xy = [];
h = [];
binary = [];
%evalin('base','clear all');
cla;

You can clear global variables with clear global.
clear global xy;
clear global h;
clear global binary;
After you clear them, if you need them you need to declare them again:
global xy;
global h;
global binary;
There is no need to clear local variables as they vanish once the function exits.

I'm still getting the error after clearing those three variables. My objective is to to allow user to use the tool without closing and reopening for collecting data from several images.
Steps are as follows:
  1. Load image
  2. calibrate it once from the scale
  3. remove messy regions from the image
  4. follow the rest (procedure to get diameters).
After above steps done, user can click a push button to reset all the variables so we don't get mixed data (and to minimize run time errors also). After that, user can load another file, but when we try to use that impoly enclosed region removal function, it is giving error. I initially thought it would have been due to not clearing the variables for second run.

Like I said in your other question, if it thinks there is more than one image in an axes, then call cla('reset') before calling imshow() so that the axes is emptied before loading an image into it.

Perfect! Wish thre were emoticons on this forum. :) The problem was with resetting axis. I thought it was something else. I applied cla command in the block. I didn't know there were separate cla('reset') function also. Anyways, Thanks very much!!!

No, there is only one global workspace.
Each function may have its own persistent variables. Those variables may be cleared by using "clear" together with the function name.
