Hello All,
I want to include some texts in the description of a structure. But it#s too long to be displayed in a single line. I want that to be displayed in 2 or 3 lines.
Any suggestions on how to do it?
Thanks

One way to go. Insert newline in your string, and display using fprintf:
yourString = 'One line \n Two line \n Three line';
fprintf(your_String);

Doing this in 2018, on version 2018a, Matlab is suggesting that I switch "char(10)" with just "newline" (outside of the single quotes). Works well.
But I prefer the compose function: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/compose.html
