How to write a text in INPUTDLG without a field?

9 views (last 30 days)
I was trying to create an input dialog box for gathering the co-ordinates of two nodes, A & B.
Is it possible to have a text that just says Node A, without any entry field next to it. It should be followed by three fields x,y,z and then another text saying Node B, followed again by the x,y,z fields.
Something like this:
Node A
x: ___
y: ___
z: ___
Node B
x: ___
y: ___
z: ___

That does not appear to be an option.
Try this:
prompt = {'Node A: x:', 'Node A: y:', 'Node A: z:', 'Node B: x:', 'Node B: y:', 'Node B: z:'};
v = inputdlg(prompt, 'Nodes', [1 35]);
.

Yeah, this is what I'm using currently. I tried adding a \n in between Node A and x, but that does not seem to work either. Thanks anyways!

As always, my pleasure!
You might be able to do what you want with GUIDE or App Designer (that I would not be able to help you with because I very rarely use them).
