Wait for user input after pressing button

Hello,

I created a "OK" button using the guide template in Matlab. Here is the code:

function varargout = prompt11(varargin)

gui_Singleton = 1;
gui_State = struct('gui_Name',       mfilename, ...
                   'gui_Singleton',  gui_Singleton, ...
                   'gui_OpeningFcn', @prompt11_OpeningFcn, ...
                   'gui_OutputFcn',  @prompt11_OutputFcn, ...
                   'gui_LayoutFcn',  [] , ...
                   'gui_Callback',   []);
if nargin && ischar(varargin{1})
    gui_State.gui_Callback = str2func(varargin{1});
end

if nargout
    [varargout{1:nargout}] = gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});
else
    gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});
end

function prompt11_OpeningFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles, varargin)

handles.output = hObject;

guidata(hObject, handles);

function varargout = prompt11_OutputFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles) 

varargout{1} = handles.output;

function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

function edit1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

function edit1_CreateFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)

if ispc && isequal(get(hObject,'BackgroundColor'), get(0,'defaultUicontrolBackgroundColor'))
    set(hObject,'BackgroundColor','white');
end

How can I go about pausing my program until the user hits the "OK" button?

My code looks like this:

1. The GUIDE program creates guis using both an *.m file (what you posted) and a *.fig file (you did not post). You'd need to upload both in order for anyone to recreate your error.
2. Good news though, your issue seems simple: Check out the uiwait and uiresume commands. Call uiwait at the end of the Main Fcn, then uiresume in the pushbutton fcn
