Why callback and enable off doesn't same time work?

I don't know a question.

The hp2 button callback function and the button isn't setting the button property 'enable' to 'off'.

For this:

function hp2_callback(hObject, eventdata) 
   set(hp2,'callback','f2');
   set(hp2,'enable','off');  
   pause(2);
   set(hp2,'enable','on');
end

This code works the 'enable off', not work in the callback 'f2'.

Why don't they both work??

I don't know. Can you post the code for your f2() function? And why isn't handles listed in your argument list? Are you using GUIDE or not? If so you'd need to use " handles.hp2" and not just "hp2".

The above would work if it was a nested function with hp2 defined - a very plausible non-GUIDE workflow.
