Dot indexing is not supported for variables of this type when trying to write value into static text box

1 vue (au cours des 30 derniers jours)
function text7_CreateFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)
value=1;
set(handles.text7, 'String', num2str(value))
I am trying to add a value that will be determined by a slider in my GUI into the text of a static text box, but recieve the error message 'Dot indexing is not supported for variables of this type'

No, it's created using guide, the older software. I'm not a fan of app designer.

Do not put anything into the CreateFcn() functions of controls. If you want something to be initialized with a value, then put that value into the String property of the control in GUIDE, not in the CreateFcn.
Now, to get the value of a slider and put it in the text box as you move the slider, you'd put it into the callback function of the slider, not the callback of the text box.
function slider1_CallbackFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)
value = handles.slider1.Value;
textLabel = sprintf('Slider = %.3f', value);
% Update text box
handles.text7.String = textLabel;

set(hObject, 'String', num2str(value))
see this comment ?
% hObject handle to edit1 (see GCBO)
% handles empty - handles not created until after all CreateFcns called

Like this? set(handles, 'String', num2str(value))
Thanks, I actually tried migrating this across to app designer but it didn't go across properly. I will probably use app designer in the future. We have next to no support from the professor's this year due to the pandemic so have been making quite a few basic mistakes with stuff like this!

No, set(hObject,'String',num2str(value)).
Using a programmatic GUI (and not AppDesigner) offers a wide variety of benefits. I would encourage you to check out the thread I linked in my previous comment.
