How can I add a title to a volume object?

If I use volshow to display some volume V:

V = ones([3 3 3]);
vol = volshow(V);

How can I add a title to the Volume object created by volshow?

Hi Thomas,

To add a title to a volume object , you can go through the following steps and attached code snippets:

1. Create volumetric data 'v', which represents the volume data that you want to visualize.

v = ones([3, 3, 3]);

2. Create a UIFigure which is essential to provide an environment that for rendering.Then use the ‘volshow’ function to visualize the volumetric data ‘v’ and set ‘uifigure’ as the ‘Parent’ which ensures that the visualization is embedded within the ‘uifigure’.

uifig = uifigure;
vol = volshow(v, 'Parent', uifig);

3. Next, use the ‘uilabel’ function and add the title and adjust the parameters as required.

titleLabel = uilabel(uifig, ...
    'Text', 'Volume Title', ...
    'Position', [100, 370, 300, 30], ... 
    'FontSize', 16, ... 
    'FontWeight', 'bold', ... 
    'HorizontalAlignment', 'center');

You can refer to the output below for better understanding:

Hope this works for you!
