It doesn't look as if I can attach my mlapp file so I'll paste the relevant code here and let you put it together. When you hit the button marked "Count to 10" it will begin counting and will not allow the user to change tabs until the callback function is complete.Once complete, it will assign a value of 1 to IsFinished which allows the tabs to be changed.
%i don't know why properties and methods aren't shown as blue, but they should be. not a big deal
properties (Access = private)
IsFinished = 1; %allows tabs to be changed at beginning
end
% Callbacks that handle component events
methods (Access = private)
% Button pushed function: Countto10Button
function Countto10ButtonPushed(app, event)
app.IsFinished = 0; %stops tabs from being changed
app.Countto10Button.BackgroundColor = 'r';
for bb = 1:10
app.EditField.Value = bb;
pause(1)
end
app.IsFinished = 1; %allows tab to be changed
app.Countto10Button.BackgroundColor = 'g';
end
% Selection change function: TabGroup
function TabGroupSelectionChanged(app, event)
app.TabGroup.BusyAction = 'Cancel';
if app.IsFinished == 1 %don't run this if the Count button isn't pressed.
return
end
%if the selected tab is anything other than 'Stay', then run this
if ~strcmpi(app.TabGroup.SelectedTab.Title,'Stay')
app.TabGroup.SelectedTab = app.TabGroup.Children(1);
end
end
end
