How to go to the next line in case of using 'system' command ?

5 views (last 30 days)
I am trying to run the program by using 'system' command and then move the mouse cursor and click on it.I can open the program by using 'system' command but it does not follow the next line in the code unless I close the program. I would like to move the mouse cursor without closing the program. How can I stop the 'system ' command after I used it ?

You can put the line as
system(' "C:\Documents and Settings\guestaskin\Desktop\model\idling1.$PJ" &') ;
OR
If your program file (idling1.$PJ) can be executed by double click on it, then you can use
>> winopen('C:\Documents and Settings\guestaskin\Desktop\model\idling1.$PJ');
winopen() is equivalent to double clicking on a file.

Hi askin,
Did you use the 'home ' command. I think it'll work, just try it.

I didnt understand the function of 'home' command here. In the help file it says it is used to Move
cursor to upper-left corner of Command Window.
