Cell contents assignment to a non-cell array object.

I want to put many arguments into listbox in Matlab Guide.

Code :

for i=1:length(setX)
    handles.myList{i}={num2str(setX(i))};
end
guidata(hObject, handles);

Where:

setX is a mat variable containing numbers.

What is wrong and how to fix it?

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

If handles.myList is the handle of a uicontrol('style','list') then the handle cannot be indexed.

Try (just)

set(handles.myList, 'String', cellstr(num2str(setX(:))))

Thank You very much .

Maybe your cell array handles.myList was used as double before these lines of code

[Jonasz]

It's the first time I put something into this handles.

I am new to MATLAB programming, who can help me identify and correct this error message: 'Cell contents assignment to a non-cell array object'

>> n=10; xmax=100; x=randi(xmax,n) for i=1:9; for j=2:10; x{i}=x([i,j;j,j]) end end
