how to have a message that indicates me the experiment is done?

Hello everyone,

İ would that when the ''Next button'' is done with the counter, it returns something like maybe a message saying that all the data have been used so the experiment is done.

Each time , i am clicking on the Next button, it is getting data from an excel file. İn another words, i am having 120 cases (drawing lines) in excel and i would like that after the 120 cases done , i should have a feedback that everything is done.

That would be up to you coding something in the callback function that does the notification -- what would be entirely up to you.

It's not possible to make much of the code you posted; it doesn't appear either of those two functions is complete; we don't see any corresponding "end" statements to indicate the end of the function.

What is in the standalone calculation routine is really of no bearing for this purpose, we would need to see the complete callback structure that starts the process and then how it goes on to more until it is finished...and then how do you know it is finished? Is there a counted loop somewhere, a list of files to process obtained from a call to dir() or what???

Simply incomplete information...

@dpb Below is all the code. In addition, On the figure , i would like all the experiment to be done between x=[-10 ;10] and y= [-10 ; 10] . The figure always centers the line on the screen. I was expecting to have some lines on the left , right depending on the coordinates.

function varargout = Hapticfinal(varargin)
% HAPTICFINAL MATLAB code for Hapticfinal.fig
%      HAPTICFINAL, by itself, creates a new HAPTICFINAL or raises the existing
%      singleton*.
%
%      H = HAPTICFINAL returns the handle to a new HAPTICFINAL or the handle to
%      the existing singleton*.
%
%      HAPTICFINAL('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
%      function named CALLBACK in HAPTICFINAL.M with the given input arguments.
%
%      HAPTICFINAL('Property','Value',...) creates a new HAPTICFINAL or raises the
%      existing singleton*.  Starting from the left, property value pairs are
%      handleslied to the GUI before Hapticfinal_OpeningFcn gets called.  An
%      unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property handleslication
%      stop.  All inputs are passed to Hapticfinal_OpeningFcn via varargin.
