How can I get multiple data(*text*) form single edit text in MATLAB guide?

4 views (last 30 days)
I have a GUI with several edit text and push buttons. a specific edit text which call Rx_name, i set edittext to 10, where user can enter different names.
What I want is to stor the data in one row
like
name=[name1 name2 name3 ....]
my code is
function pushbutton1_Callback(~, ~, handles)
% hObject handle to pushbutton1 (see GCBO)
% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
Rx_name=get(handles.Rx_name,'String')
Rx_lat=str2num(char(get(handles.Rx_lat,'String')));
Rx_lon=str2num(char(get(handles.Rx_long,'String')));
Rx_height=str2num(char(get(handles.Rx_height,'String')));
rxs = rxsite('Name', Rx_name,...
'Latitude',Rx_lat,...
'Longitude',Rx_lon,...
'AntennaHeight',Rx_height);
show(rxs)
link(rxs,txs)
I got different values for Rx_lat, Rx_lon and Rx_height but I can't get different *text* for Rx_name wher it should be text not number

I understand you want to store your text data from an edit text input in one row.
This snippet which you have written
Rx_name=get(handles.Rx_name,'String')
wthis will store the entire edit text as one continuous string. Assume the edit text was name1 name2 name3, Rx_name will be ‘name1 name2 name3’, a single string.
In order to store them separately, you can use the split command
Rx_name_split = split(Rx_name)
, which splits at all white spaces.
The result Rx_name_split will be a cell array with name1,name2 and name3 stored as individual elements. You can index a cell array like this:
Rx_name_split{1}
or
Rx_name_split{2}
or so on
