edit button in matlab

please i need help in making the edit button show on the axes. I parse the text into the button and I am trying to code it. this is my code below. I am new to this site :)

thanks...

function pushbutton4_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to pushbutton4 (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

a=get(handles.edit1,'String')
set(handles.edit1,'String',a)

Your code is not doing anything, What is your exact problem ?

I want the text in the text bar to show in the axes when the button is pushed.. this is my code

function edit1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles) % hObject handle to edit1 (see GCBO) % eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB % handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

% Hints: get(hObject,'String') returns contents of edit1 as text % str2double(get(hObject,'String')) returns contents of edit1 as a double %a = get(hObject, 'String');

% --- Executes during object creation, after setting all properties. function edit1_CreateFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles) % hObject handle to edit1 (see GCBO) % eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB % handles empty - handles not created until after all CreateFcns called

% Hint: edit controls usually have a white background on Windows. % See ISPC and COMPUTER. if ispc && isequal(get(hObject,'BackgroundColor'), get(0,'defaultUicontrolBackgroundColor')) set(hObject,'BackgroundColor','white'); end

% --- Executes on button press in pushbutton4. function pushbutton4_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles) % hObject handle to pushbutton4 (see GCBO) % eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB % handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

a=get(handles.edit1,'String') set(handles.edit1,'String',a)

thanks

You say "I want the text in the text bar to show in the axes when the button is pushed."

I don't know what a text bar is, but I assume you mean your edit text field/box. I also will assume you have an axes called axes1 that has a range of 0-10 in the x direction and 0-10 in the y direction. So, just make your pushbutton4 callback look like this.

function pushbutton4_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to pushbutton4 (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

% Get the text in the edit box:
editText = get(handles.edit1,'String')
% Make it show up in the axes at location 2,4:
text(2, 4, editText);
