How to disable the checkbox "don't show this dialog again"

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to make a dialog box with multiple responses. I want this dialog box to always appear, thus I'd like to disable the "Do not show this dialog again".

Here is an exemple of my code (I use MATLAB 2018b) :

temp.group = "grouptest"; temp.pref = "preftest"; temp.title = "Are you hungry ?";
temp.quest = ["Do you want a sandwich ?"];
temp.pbtns = ["yes","no"]; temp.pval = uigetpref(temp.group,temp.pref,temp.title,temp.quest,temp.pbtns, ...
    "CheckboxState",0, "ExtraOptions","Cancel");

if strcmp(temp.pval,'yes') == 1
    exemple = 1
elseif strcmp(temp.pval,'no') == 1
    exemple = 2
else
    clearvars temp
end

Hi @Renaud,

You can either reenable the button everytime or you can create your own custom dialog box using "questdlg" function:

To reenable it you can use "setpref" or "uisetpref" function as mentioned in this link:

To create a custom question dialog box you can refer to this MathWorks documentation link:

I hope this helps!
