Hi.
I have much expericence with GUI creations/manipluation + "GUI Layout Toolbox"
Few issues:
- Can you send code examples so I can test and help you
- I could not figure-out what MWE stands for. Please explain
You wrote: "At any given time, either a 2D or a 3D plot is displayed. To switch from a 3D to a 2D plot, I remove the parent of the 3D uipanel and set the vbox as parent of the 2D uipanel"
Why not use uiextras.TabPanel? - having 2 panels, one of the 2D, 2nd for 3D and just move to the correct Tab?
Here is an example
function GUI__with_Tabs_example()
init_GUI()
end
%------------------------------------------------------------------------
function handles = init_GUI(handles)
handles.hFig = figure;
hParent = handles.hFig;
handles.hTabPanel = uiextras.TabPanel('Parent',hParent,'Tag','hTabPanel','Callback', @hTabPanel_callback);
handles.pn_2D = uipanel('parent',handles.hTabPanel, 'tag','pn_2D');
handles.pn_3D = uipanel('parent',handles.hTabPanel, 'tag','pn_3D');
handles.hTabPanel.TabNames = {'2D','3D'};
handles.hTabPanel.TabSize = 50;
handles.hTabPanel.FontWeight = 'bold';
ax2d = axes(handles.pn_2D);
imagesc(ax2d,magic(30));
ax3d = axes(handles.pn_3D);
[X,Y] = meshgrid(-8:.5:8);
R = sqrt(X.^2 + Y.^2) + eps;
Z = sin(R)./R;
mesh(X,Y,Z,'Parent',ax3d);
guidata(handles.hFig, handles) % Update handles struct
end
%------------------------------------------------------------------------
function hTabPanel_callback(hObject, eventData)
fprintf(2,'Selected Child = %d\n',eventData.SelectedChild);
end
