How to add text or string in App Designer

Hi

I am creating an app in App Designer that perform some calculations. During the process, I want to display text somewhere in the app from a string in the main code. I am aware of uilabel, but this creates a new window instead of displaying the text in the app window.

Please can you help me?

It sounds like uicontrol('Style','text') will do the trick.

I cannot get this to work on App Designer.

Have you called uilabel while specifying the parent? The doc for uilabel states that it will create a new uifigure if you don't.

Yes, I have called uilabel while specifying the parent. No luck.

Hello Andre,

I answered a similar question here, and didn't experience any issues. Can you provide some details on what didn't work? Did you get any error messages?
