Using one save button(push button) instead of two?

Hi,

I'm using "two push buttons" to run two independent functions. Let's say one for "process1" and for the other one "process2". If "process1" works, "process2" doesn't work and if "process2" works, "process1" doesn't work. Thats OK and what I want. Then I want to save the output which is done/worked succesfully by using ONE push button (save button). Lets say the output of process1 is "mat1" and the output of the other process is "mat2" I tried to use some "if" commands but it didn't work. Is it possible to do that with one push button or do I have to do this with 2 buttons for each process?

Have you tried a toggle button?

No, I haven't because I have to do it with push button. Is it possible?

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

You can do it by saving a variable that indicate which process is off or on

handles.process=1  % indicates process1 is on
guidata(hObject,handles)

Yes it worked!

I also have tried "handles.process=1" before but I didn't add the line "guidata(hObject,handles)" and it didn't worked. Now I added it and everyting is ok now. Can you please explain what does the second line mean?

guidata(hObject,handles)

update handles, you can use its content in other functions by

v=handles.process
