The number of significant digits of writestruct is quite limited, as showed by this example
s=struct('pi',pi);
writestruct(s,'pi.xml');
type pi.xml
Does anyone know how to change/control/increase it?

s=struct('pi', num2str(pi, 15)); % pi with 15 significant figures
writestruct(s, 'pi.xml');
type pi.xml
Output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<struct>
<pi>3.141592653589793</pi>
</struct>

Yes, I see your point. I studied the documentation and clearly writestruct is not intended for numeric variables. The focus is on text, and xml in particular. Good luck.
