inputdlg, Several boxes in one line.

How can make in the following code several boxes in one line? Right now I need to leave a space between entries.

Thank you

clear all
clc
prompt={'Enter the dimension:','Enter x-direction cut-off, Nx, Enter z-direction cut-off Nz'...
    'Enter left boundary position, Enter right boundary position'...
    'Enter lower boundary position, Enter upper boundary position'...
    };
% Create all your text fields with the questions specified by the variable prompt.
title='Inputs'; 
% The main title of your input dialog interface.
answer=inputdlg(prompt,title);
cutoff = str2num(answer{2}); 
xdirection = str2num(answer{3});
zdirection = str2num(answer{4});

Nx=cutoff(1,1);
Nz=cutoff(1,2);
Lx=xdirection(1,1);
Rx=xdirection(1,2);
Lz=zdirection(1,1);
Uz=zdirection(1,2);

What do you mean "leave a space between the entries"? What entries? What space?

If you run that code you will see a data input box with 4 input boxes. Last 3 of them are used for entering 2 data for each. But I want to have 2 boxes in each line.

I see. I think you will have to write your own GUI for that.

You would have to edit the source for inputdlg() to do that -- that or do your own GUI construction instead of using the handy inputdlg()

I am trying to use GUI too but I did not understand how to edit inputdlg. Can you make it more clear?

Thank you

At the MATLAB command line, enter the command

edit inputdlg
