Wait for a button to be pressed to continue the function - APP DESIGNER

Hi, there. I have the following problem. I have a callback created that calculates a number of things. When I'm calculating a particular thing, what I want is for the execution to stop until I press another button. And once I've pressed it, go on. I tried waitfor but to no avail...

The code will be something like…

% Button pushed function: Button
function ButtonPushed(app, event)
    disp('A')

wait for button2 pushed

    disp('B')
end

And I don't want to create an uifigure.

Instead of a button, you can change it to a state button in app designer

Then in your code just use a while loop to check the value of the state button is 1 before continuing with the rest of your code.

while(app.statebutton.Value ~=1) 
    pause(1);
end
app.statebutton.Value = 0; 
%rest of your code
