Hi, I have constructed a complex GUI using MATLAB. I intend to increase the screen space of the GUI and am unable to figure out the technique, Dragging the edges of the GUI doesnt help. May someone suggest any method to do so.
Thanks.

It should work. What is the "windowstyle" property of your GUI (look in the Property Inspector). Is it "normal"? Or is it "modal" or "docked"? And what is the "units" property value?

set(gcf,'Position',[leftX, bottomY, width, height])
gcf dynamically refers to the handle of the figure object which your GUI is built on (basically the outer layer of your GUI).
You have to assign 4 values with the property 'Position'. The first two values position your GUI in the screen by setting the "starting" point of the lower-left corner, the other two are self-explaantory.
You can call:
get(gcf,'Position')
to see the actual values.
