Check the Value property of the uicontrol . It will be 1 when the button is pressed and 0 if the button is not pressed.

However, people often code uicontrol style 'pushbutton'. pushbutton only have value 1 while their Callback are being processed, and immediately return to 0 afterwards. If you need to check outside the Callback to determine whether the button was pressed since you last checked, then you will need to arrange to have the callback set a value in a location that other routines can access. http://matlab.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#How_can_I_share_data_between_callback_functions_in_my_GUI.28s.29.3F

I don't really know, why I can't reference it with in my new .m Script.

You switched order. setappdata 'a', 1

Thanks, now is working. I set

setappdata(handles.pushbutton1, 'a', 1);

value = getappdata(handles.pushbutton1, 'a');

and I need my 'value' now im the other .m script. How can I 'take it' ?
