Creating callbacks to children in menus

Hello All,

I am trying to create the same callback for each of the children in a menu bar. When the function getfile is called, several children are populated to the "Open User Setting menu bar". Now, when I run the app and click one of the children menus, I would like to call the function "settingSelected(app)" and load the file "name" to a struct called var. However, I haven't been able to make the settingSelected function to work.

Any help would be great.

Thanks!

        function getfile(app)
            files = dir(fullfile('path where I saved files', '*.mat'));
            for i = 1:size(files,1)
                app.mitem = uimenu(app.OpenUserSettingsMenu,'Text',files(i).name); % creates childrens (with the names of the files inside path) for Open User Settings menu bar
                app.mitem.MenuSelectedFcn = @setttingSelected(app,files(i).name) 
            end
            
        end

        function settingSelected(app,name)
            var = load(name);
        end
