Hello all,
I have some Matlab code that computes a number of geophysical/flexural parameters and should plot the data out. However, the front-end code to the functions does not do anything other than generate a blank figure window: The code below is the top level program that calls the function from the HM_ variables
%program flex2d
%defining variables
global flagelas
global flagtyp
global flaggeom
global flaghede
global flagsol
global flagfig
flagelas=0;
flagtyp=0;
flaggeom=0;
flaghede=0;
flagsol=0;
flagfig=0;
%setting the graphical user interface
canvas = figure('Name','FLEX2D'); <------ this works and the figure window opens, then that is it !

All the highlighted function in bold exist in the run folder so that is not the problem (yet)
All of the HM_xxx have attributed values, so I assume it is actually doing something. But the calls to the functions in the uimenu are not run/active. Is there anything wrong or is there a different methodolgy to follow for Octave?
