place uitable in a GUI by code ?

Dear all,

I have a GUI, the results of which i want to display in a uitable. The size of my table depends on parameters taken from GUI.

I want to put a uitable in the GUI not at the very beginning in my GUI because, that would make my GUI undesirable large in size ( even hiding uitable at the beginning doesnot help. So what i thought, if it possible to put a uitable in the GUI if after code in a certain pushbutton is finished ?

If yes, How would i control the position of uitable ?

Hi,

yes, you might do in the callback of your pushbutton something like

handles.mytable = uitable('units', 'normalized', ...
  'position', [0.1 0.1 0.8 0.3], 'Data', rand(2,8));
guidata(hObject, handles)

Here the position is given relative to the entire GUI. You might as well use pixels for the position or characters.
