How do i create play and stop button for animation?

[eltrinco]

i have created my animation :

function plot_pix(v,t)

%project 2d pictures

view = [1 0 0 ; 0 1 0]; % projection matrix for 2D pictures
dim = .8e13; %limit of figure
plot(v(:,1),v(:,2),'r.'); %plotting red masses
hold on;

%plot(v(1,1),v(1,2),'y*');-plottint green point

scatter(v(1,1),v(1,2),15,'filled','green'); %a star as the centre for all planets
axis([-dim dim -dim dim]); %limits of figure

axis square %set the figure axis to fit tightly around the data so that the planets which bounce more outwards still can be seen
title(['No. of Steps : ' num2str(t) ]); %title of figure
hold off
shg; % show the most recent figure in window
pause(.02);
end

i want to add the play and stop function in it. how do i do it?

You can use the "uicontrol" function to create buttons for play and stop. The code would look something like this: f = figure; % Create Play Buttonuicontrol('Parent', f, 'Style', 'pushbutton', 'String', 'Play', ... 'Position', [20 20 50 20], 'Callback', @play_callback); % Create Stop Buttonuicontrol('Parent', f, 'Style', 'pushbutton', 'String', 'Stop', ... 'Position', [80 20 50 20], 'Callback', @stop_callback); % Callback functions for the buttonsfunction play_callback(hObject, ~) % code to start the animation endfunction stop_callback(hObject, ~) % code to stop the animation end
