Infinite Loop in GUI Matlab

Hi all,

I'm writing a gui and wanted to know if there is any option to write an infinite loop (while 1) in the OpeningFcn and be able to run rest of the gui at the same time?

If you have other option I'll be happy to hear.

p.s. I don't want to use any buttons as a condition for that loop.

Thanks,

When you block the OpeningFcn by while 1, Matlab does not reach the "rest of the GUI". This is the nature of an infinite loop.

What is your intention?

[Yash]

the GUI will be stuck at that point

Perhaps you are wanting to use waitfor() or uiwait()

Thanks guys. I created a togglebutton and used while get(hObject,'Value') to get into the loop.

Now I get other issue, while the togglebutton is pressed the loop is running and if I want to close the gui window while the loop is running I get following errors:

??? Error using ==> plot Data must be a single matrix Y or a list of pairs X,Y

Error in ==> Voice_measure_gui>Start_Callback at 115 plot(handles.time_domain,time,data)

Error in ==> gui_mainfcn at 96 feval(varargin{:});

Error in ==> Voice_measure_gui at 42 gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

Error in ==> @(hObject,eventdata)Voice_measure_gui('Start_Callback',hObject,eventdata,guidata(hObject))

??? Error while evaluating uicontrol Callback

The intention of the code is to sample voice speech and to plot its time domain and freq. domain in real time.

Please advice
