GUI: Creating instructions page.

Hi, I have a push button in matlab GUI and when that is used, I want to open up a simple text window with instructions in it.

I"m currently experimenting with msgbox but I can't seem to make text appear in new line.

You can do it two ways:

theValue = 42;
% Method 1 (my favorite): use sprintf with \n.
message = sprintf('Line 1\nLine 2, the value = %d\nLine 3', theValue);
uiwait(msgbox(message));

% Mathod #2: use cell array:
message = {'Line 1', ['Line 2, the value = ', num2str(theValue)], 'Line 3'};
uiwait(helpdlg(message));
