Moving multiple boxes in figure?

Question

I already have the functions required to drag and drop a single box in a figure in MATLAB. The code I wrote fills the figure with several boxes. With another loop I filled the f

Answer 1

I usually use findall instead of findobj, in case the handles of the objects are not visible from the outside. Other than that I don't see why your code wouldn't work.

Here's an example:

%# make a figure with two buttons, same userData
fh=figure,
uicontrol('userdata',[2 3],'parent',fh)
uicontrol('userData',[2 3],'units','normalized','position',[0.5 0.5,0.1 0.1],'parent',fh)

%# change color to red
set(findall(fh,'userData',[2 3]),'backgroundcolor','r')

%# move to the same position
set(findall(fh,'userData',[2 3]),'position',[0.3,0.3,0.1,0.1])
