Re: closed loop control GSoC Design Question

[Matheus Portela]

Hey Doug,

I am not sure what problem is going on your example. I tried here to do a simple uicontrol command, which return the following error:

error: __go_draw_figure__: unknown object class, uicontrol
error: called from:
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/plot/private/__go_draw_figure__.m at line 181, column 15
error:   /usr/share/octave/3.6.4/m/plot/__gnuplot_drawnow__.m at line 86, column 5

It turned out that using the FLTK as the graphical toolkit removed the error as explained in this thread http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11658345/uicontrol-on-octave-3-6-2 (although the push button still does not appear on the screen). Basically, just have to type it on the octave interpreter

graphics_toolkit fltk;

However, when I try to run "demo uimenu", it generates a surface plot without any GUI element.

Give a try and let us know if it helps somehow.

Does it work for you?

Hello everyone,

I have used the SISOTool in MATLAB but I'm not familiar with the uiXXX functions. My GUI programming experience is mainly with Qt.

Anyway, I'm gonna take a look over the internet and try and write a few examples using it to get the idea behind them.

I am going to use the uiXXX  during the next few days to get a feel for what it can do. After that and after Matheus answers, then we should make a decision on the starting point for this project. From what I see on Matlabs pages for uiXXX, I think that this is the way to go. I am just a bit leery about using these in octave, because they seem new and unused (no examples), but if we find problems with them I am sure the octave teem will come to our aid.

Thanks for the heads-up.

I have tried unsuccessfully to make  "demo uimenu" to work.

  

Michael Goffioul, can you make it work????

I found a report that said it was broken in 3.6.4 and default.

I  also asked on IRC and was told that it did not work on 3.6.4 and default.

 

Please help, we need this to work.

Am I doing something wrong?
