How can I get multiple data(*text*) form single edit text in MATLAB guide?

I have a GUI with several edit text and push buttons. a specific edit text which call Rx_name, i set edittext to 10, where user can enter different names.

What I want is to stor the data in one row

like

name=[name1 name2 name3 ....]

my code is

function pushbutton1_Callback(~, ~, handles)

% hObject handle to pushbutton1 (see GCBO)

% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB

% handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

Rx_name=get(handles.Rx_name,'String')

Rx_lat=str2num(char(get(handles.Rx_lat,'String')));

Rx_lon=str2num(char(get(handles.Rx_long,'String')));

Rx_height=str2num(char(get(handles.Rx_height,'String')));

rxs = rxsite('Name', Rx_name,...

'Latitude',Rx_lat,...

'Longitude',Rx_lon,...

'AntennaHeight',Rx_height);

show(rxs)

link(rxs,txs)

I got different values for Rx_lat, Rx_lon and Rx_height but I can't get different *text* for Rx_name wher it should be text not number

I understand you want to store your text data from an edit text input in one row.

This snippet which you have written

Rx_name=get(handles.Rx_name,'String') 

wthis will store the entire edit text as one continuous string. Assume the edit text was name1 name2 name3, Rx_name will be ‘name1 name2 name3’, a single string.

In order to store them separately, you can use the split command

Rx_name_split = split(Rx_name)

, which splits at all white spaces.

The result Rx_name_split will be a cell array with name1,name2 and name3 stored as individual elements. You can index a cell array like this:

Rx_name_split{1} 

or

Rx_name_split{2} 

or so on
