Show Percentage of external Script in GUI

Hello everybody!

Following problem: I created a GUI including a text field with the tag "percentage". In this GUI script (at the end of it) I added my external function. In a nutshell: When I press the "Calculate" button in my GUI, I want that my function gets called. That works fine, my function gets calucated without any problems. Following a simplified version of my function:

    function myfun(input1)
        for i=1:50
             d = input1 * i;
             percentage = i/50*100;
        end
    end

Now I want that the percentage of the calculation gets updated in my text field "percentage", so it shows the progress of the "for" command in my function. But I really don't know how I can updated a created string of a text field.

Thanks in advance! Paul

You can set the 'string' field of the edit text

set(handles.edit1,'string',num2str(percentage));
