Help with multi-window GUI

My GUI tool is thus organized:

1) input_screen.m, where the user can only enter numeric values;

2) callbacks of various scripts and functions;

3) Plots and numeric results.

Instead of visualizing plots and numeric results within Matlab's main window, I want to show them in a results_screen.m kind of window.

I've been reading various help files, such as "Making multitple GUIs work together" and "Sharing Data Among a GUI's Callbacks" and I've asked previously here, but I can't find a proper workaround for my GUI.

For example, I've created axes within the results_screen.m

Now how can I use them to show my plots?

I can't figure it out how to put these commands: fig = figure(); ax = axes('Parent',fig); plot(ax,X,Y);

Same for uitable('Style' 'text') where I want to show my numeric results.

im also beginner with matlab. However my way to show a data in other window GUI is like this.

1. i save all the value that input from input_screen.m in MAT files

save VALUE a b c

2. i create new button to open the new window for results_screen GUI

result_screen()

3. i load from previous saved MAT files in results_screen then i can use that value to plot at axes in results_screen window.

load VALUE

That my way,hope it will help you.

Go to this page and click Axes, you will find a good example. By the way, the same info is in the MATLAB document. Type doc and on the left column, click MATLAB->Creating Graphical User Interfaces ... and so on.

And a quick example:

fig=figure;
h_table=uicontrol('style','text','parent',fig);
set(h_table,'string',num2str(1:3));
h_axes=axes('parent',fig,'position',[.2 .2 .7 .7]);
plot(h_axes,1:10);
