Matlab GUI non-tag item supported?

Is it possible to use totally static item on GUI for example title text. This field don't have to be an element of handles., doesn't trigger any event.

My handles structure grows so fast when I have a lot of fields. But half of them are title text, only for display purposes.

Thanks,

You could remove them from handles in the GUI OpeningFcn.

Why is it bad if handles has extra unused fields? These are scalars, even if you have 10000 of them it still doesn't take up a whole lot of extra space. Name the tags of the handles you care about to something meaningful and forget the rest.

If you mean to set a fixed 'String' field on your GUI, the answer to your question is yes, but you will not be able to use either 'set' nor 'get' in your code to modify/read the field.
