MATLAB Function Reference Volume 1: A - E - Bad Request

actxcontrol
Note There are two ways to handle events. You can create a single callback
or you can specify a cell array that contains pairs of events and event
handlers. In the cell array format, specify events by either number or name.
Each control defines event numbers and names. There is no limit to the
number of pairs that can be specified in the cell array. Although using the
single callback method may be easier in some cases, using the cell array
technique creates more efficient code that results in better performance.
Returns A MATLAB activex object that represents the default interface for this control
or server. Use the get, set, invoke, propedit, release, and delete methods
on this object. A MATLAB error will be generated if this call fails.
Description Create an ActiveX control at a particular location within a figure window. If the
parent figure window is invisible, the control will be invisible. The returned
MATLAB activex object represents the default interface for the control. This
interface must be released through a call to release when it is no longer
needed to free the memory and resources used by the interface. Note that
releasing the interface does not delete the control itself (use the delete
command to delete the control.)
Example Callback style:
For an example callback event handler, see the file sampev.m in the
toolbox\matlab\winfun directory.
f = figure ('pos', [100 200 200 200]);
% create the control to fill the figure
h = actxcontrol ('MWSAMP.MwsampCtrl.1', [0 0 200 200], ...
gcf, 'sampev')
Cell array style:
h = actxcontrol ('SELECTOR.SelectorCtrl.l', ...
[0 0 200 200], f, {-600 'myclick'; -601 'my2click'; ...
-605 'mymoused'})
h = actxcontrol ('SELECTOR.SelectorCtrl.l', ...
[0 0 200 200], f, {'Click' 'myclick'; ...
