how to change uiLamp color in parfeval function?

Hi,

parfor

or

parfeval

functions do no accept structs as input parameters.

GUIs designed using App Designer memorises properties in structs like

app.myLamp.Color

I have a process running inside a

parfeval

function that should change e.g. color of the lamp.

How to do this?

Thanks

Using parfeval or parfor is allowed in the App Designer. However, a quick test I just ran does not allow for modifying app object properties such as lamp color in parallel which might be expected (note that app.myLamp.Color is referencing an object property, not a struct).

You can, however, store the value of a property and then pass that to the workers instead of trying to access it from within the workers.
