Arguments

h

Description

Examples

Create an mwsamp control and add a new property named Position to it. Assign an array value to the property:

• f = figure('pos', [100 200 200 200]);
  h = actxcontrol('mwsamp.mwsampctrl.2', [0 0 200 200], f);
  get(h)
       Label: 'Label'
      Radius: 20
  
  addproperty(h, 'Position');
  set(h, 'Position', [200 120]);
  get(h)
         Label: 'Label'
        Radius: 20
      Position: [200 120]
  

Delete the custom Position property:

• deleteproperty(h, 'Position');
  get(h)
       Label: 'Label'
      Radius: 20
