greek letters in GUI...

Hello All, I know this should be easy but I seem to not be able to it. I would like to put '/mu' of the Greek alphabet in a text in my GUI and can not seem to be able to do it. it always prints out: /mu and not the correct mu letter.

Here is the code I use (one full line):

set(handles.EmittanceX,'String',[num2str(emit*10^6,'%2.3f'),char(177), num2str(er_emit*10^6,'%2.3f'),' /mu']);

The char(177) is the '/pm' but again I was not able to make that work. Thanks, Chris

hi I need help

what if I have multiple lines with a Greek letter in each how can I do that in Matlab?

for example :

[x1,x2]=standard_statistical_tests(prng) % calling a function ;

the serial test (chi symbol)=x1 ;
the poker test (alpa symbol)=x2;

how can do the above example in GUI ?

[Walter Roberson]

x1 = rand; x2 = rand;

S = sprintf('the serial test (\\chi) = %.2f\nthe poker test (\\alpha) = %.2f', x1, x2);
h = text(0.5, 0.5, S, 'interpreter', 'tex');
