Why does tab complete not work for user written functions that except filenames?
function testFunction(file)
disp(file)
end %end function
Call the above function with a file. While entering the file name, try to tab complete it. It won't work. Why not?

The rules for tab completion are not well defined, and do not always make sense.
Tab completion for a quoted string takes place if:
  • the quoted string is the first expression (possibly after whitespace) after the beginning of the line, or after a comma (",") or semi-colon (";") that marks the end of anything previous on the line
  • the quoted string immediately follows (no whitespace) a non-quoted underscore ('_') or period ('.')
  • the quoted string immediately follows (no whitespace) a latin letter or latin digit
In addition, there are circumstances under which a quoted string that follows an exclamation mark ('!') may lead to a flawed tab completion, in which the resulting word is missing one or more characters from the file name.
None of the above situations match attempting to enter a valid quoted string as the argument to a function. :(

The user defined function has to be saved on the current directory or its path set on matlab paths. Matlab will not autocomplete a function name of a function located in a directory different to the working directory.

I appreciate your answer but it is not correct. The function is definitely on my path and so is the file. I have folder called UserDefinedFunctions where I store my often used scripts. You can see it the 3rd line of my path shown below. The files are most often in my current working folder.
>> path
MATLABPATH
