Store MATLAB app designer variables to work-space

Hi. How we can store app designer variables to MATLAB R2016a main window work-space. We have this behavior in GUIDE. There I can't find any connection between app designer and work-space of MATLAB.

You could use assignin or export2wsdlg.

Example of assigning output to base workspace after pressing a button:
function ButtonPushed(app,event)
x = 10;
assignin('base','x',x);
end

Here's a link to the matlab page on sharing data within apps that has sample solutions.

Jack, I can imagine a few scenarios why I might need to do this, but I'm curious to hear yours. Can you share why you're looking to store your App Designer variables outside your app? Is it to troubleshoot something or for some other purpose?

Typical... I can imagine a 1000 different reasons to do this. Why exactly is the workspace outside of the App designer?

I am looking for an answer for the original post. I need this so I can design a GUI for a 6DOF aircraft simulation in simulink. I want the user to define his inputs into the gui, and once a button is pushed I want the related m file aswell as the simulation to run using the variables defined by the user.

You can save variable in .mat file and then load it from workspace.
