How to print variable and its value in the same line on Command Window

Hi, I have this attribution in Command Window

I would like it to be shown as "a = 1", in the same line, without this line break after the equals. Do you know any setting that can change it? My version is R2022b.

Thanks

I don't think there is an option to change this particular display style/format.

Is there any particular reason you want to do this?

To my knowledge, there is way to modify such line breaks in the output of a command as you're describing. But, depending on your objective, there are a couple options:

Use a semicolon after assigning the variable to suppress the output. That way "a = 1" is only on one line of the Command Window as the command.

a = 1;

If you still want to display the variable and value on a single line as an output of a command you could do this:

a = 1;
disp("a = " + num2str(a))

a = 1
