Advanced MATLAB Training Overview
This Advanced MATLAB training course teaches attendees how to create sophisticated graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for MATLAB programs, using both the interactive AppDesigner tool and direct programming. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript customizations of uifigures are demonstrated and practiced via an instructor-led mini-project. In addition, Java-based customizations of legacy figures are discussed and compared to the web-based uifigures.
Location and Pricing
This course is taught as a private, live online class for teams of 3 or more. All our courses are hands-on, instructor-led, and tailored to fit your group’s goals and needs. Most Accelebrate classes can be flexibly scheduled for your group, including delivery in half-day segments across a week or set of weeks. To receive a customized proposal and price quote for online corporate training, please contact us.
In addition, some courses are available as live, instructor-led training from one of our partners.
Objectives
All students learn how to:
- Create rich and highly interactive user interfaces in MATLAB
- Create MATLAB GUIs using both AppDesigner and programmatically
- Understand the differences between MATLAB’s GUI frameworks: figures and uifigures
- Customize and control the appearance and behavior of GUI elements
- Experiment with customizing GUIs using 3rd-party components
- Understand MATLAB GUI roadmap and its implications for your development needs
Prerequisites
Students should have taken Accelebrate's Object-Oriented MATLAB Programming and Creating MATLAB User Interfaces courses or have equivalent knowledge. Attendees must have experience with basic programming and be comfortable using the MATLAB environment, including creating basic MATLAB GUIs using the AppDesigner tool. No prior experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or Java is assumed or required for this course. However, some familiarity with these technologies would be helpful for attendees.
