How to display a vector in edit text in MATLAB?

Hello, I need to display a vector in edit text and I don't know how to do that, please, a little help if someone can...

This is my code:

From interface:

 uicontrol('Style','Text',...
    'Units','Normalized',...
    'Position',[0.085,0.68,0.1,0.03],...
    'BackgroundColor',[0.75,0.75,0.75],...
    'FontSize',10,...
    'FontWeight','b',...
    'String','Vi[Vector intrare]:');
uicontrol('Style','Edit',...
    'Units','Normalized',...
    'Position',[0.09,0.63,0.05,0.03],...
    'FontSize',10,...
    'String',Vi,...
    'Callback','Vi=str2num(get(gco,''String''));interfata(R,L,C,tip,Ver,Vi)');

In the main program:

Vi=[0 0  1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0];
interf(N,R,tip,Ver,Vi);

Vi=[0 0  1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0];
>> s = ['Vi[',regexprep(num2str(Vi),' +',' '),']']
s =
    'Vi[0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0]'

OMG, thank you so much!

[Adam Danz]

No problem!

I just updated the answer to get rid of the extra white space between numbers.

% Old version
s = ['Vi[',num2str(Vi),']']
% New version
s = ['Vi[',regexprep(num2str(Vi),' +',' '),']']

Would u mind to answer me at one more question please: Can I change with another values in the edit text from the interface and it will work or I will always have that values that I put it in main program?

[Adam Danz]

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking whether you can edit the text from the GUI by typing in other numbers? Sure!

Or are you asking whether you can change the text from within the code? That's also quite simple. Maybe I'm not understanding the question.

[Demeter Andreea]

Yes, I'm saying that if I will put another numbers in the edit text, if Vi will get that new values (numbers), because I will need to show a result that depends from Vi changes. But I will work on that later.

I see. You want to pull the string out from the text box, isolate the vector, and convert that back to numeric values. We can do that.

However, I recommend if possible, only allowing numeric text in that field rahter than including the "Vi[...]". That way you don't have to parse the numeric values from the non-numeric values. It gives you better control and the user less opportunity to break the rules. Do you know what I mean?

In any case, here's how you would work with the string from your example.

s =  'Vi[0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0]'; 
tokens = regexp(s,'\[(.+)\]','tokens');
d = str2double(strsplit(tokens{:}{:}));

result

d =  
     0     0     1     0     0     1     1     0     0     0     0     0
     % (numeric)

If you decide to only permit numeric text in the text box, it's a lot simpler

s =  '0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0'; 
d = str2double(strsplit(s))

Thank u for everything! U helped me a lot. :)

By default it appears the Edit control converts an array to a column array of values and you can't display that in one row...if the size isn't too long and you can afford the real estate on the screen, you could set the 'min/max' properties and display the rows.

To keep as a one-row string, you've got to do the text conversion yourself --

vstr=sprintf([repmat('%d,',1,numel(Vi)-1) '%d'],Vi);
hUIEd=uicontrol('Syle','Edit', ...
                ...
                'String',vstr,
                ...);

and use it as the 'String'

Thanks for your sugestions. I solved the problem.
