I've created a GUI for a research study where I want participants to listen to multiple different audio files. The way the GUI works is that when I press the "Play" button it plays the audio file. Then there are a bunch of questions with radio buttons to get responses from the participants. At the end there is a button "Save" to save those responses in csv file.
So far I've been using the mouse to click the individual buttons, but I was wondering if there is a way to trigger the Play Button using a simple key command like Spacebar. I tried using the key press fnc, but it only works when the Play button is pressed once using the mouse (after bringing the play button in focus). Is there a way to ensure that a specific button is already in focus when the app is launched so that I can use a key command to trigger it?

Yes, in the app's startupFcn, call focus() on the button.

"I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned on previous forum entries that asked the similar question. "
FOCUS was only introduced in R2022a: earlier threads are unlikely to mention this function.
