Try a framework that is already built up with the basic stuff you need to get started (listboxes, radio buttons, etc.): http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/24224-magic-matlab-generic-imaging-component

Description

This GUI will help the novice user get up to speed very quickly on using GUI-based applications. Everything is laid out in a very simple Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, etc. layout. It is a very good starting point for a typical application. This application uses GUIDE to do the user interface design, and has most of the basic controls such as buttons, listboxes, checkboxes, radio buttons, scrollbars, etc. It allows the user to select a folder of images, select one or more images and display them, to select a series of options, and to individually or batch process one or more images. ..........................

Hi, your question is quite broad. I would recommend you to watch some video tutorials or documentations.

For example: http://www.mathworks.com/videos/creating-a-gui-with-guide-68979.html?s_tid=disc_ibl

or try google "matlab gui tutorial"

PS: To answer your question, that function you mentioned is your GUI (if you Run it, you should see what you have built). File name is the name of your GUI (same as you save it - the name of m-file). Varargout and varargin are "Variable length output argument list" and "Variable length input argument list", as you can see in the Matlab Help.

I have entered in the folder of imdemos then I select all by ctrl + A but know I do not understand what should I do. I ignored the optional step but can not go through step 4.

Please help,

Have a nice day.
