App Designer | error when trying to make one logical cell equal another

Hello,

Please assist with the below. Both are logical cells in a two different tables. I try to make one change as the other does in the UITablePlotHeadCellEdit function. I've read through multiple posts trying to solve this but don't understand what I'm doing wrong:

app.UITablePlotHead.Data{:,7}) == app.UITablePlotHead.Data(1,7)

For which my current error is:

Undefined function 'eq' for input arguments of type 'cell'.

Error in GraphingTemplate_Table12/UITablePlotHeadCellEdit (line 861)
                    if (app.UITablePlotHead.Data{1,7}) == true
 
Error using matlab.ui.internal.controller.uitable.WebMWTableController/fireCallbacksFromCellEdit (line 744)
Error while evaluating Table CellEditCallback.

Undefined function 'eq' for input arguments of type 'cell'.

Error in GraphingTemplate_Table12/UITablePlotHeadCellEdit (line 861)
                    if (app.UITablePlotHead.Data{1,7}) == true
 
Error using matlab.ui.internal.controller.uitable.WebMWTableController/fireCallbacksFromCellEdit (line 744)

I did try reading up on the warnings but couldn't successfully apply anything to my code.

I also tried:

 if (app.UITablePlotHead.Data{1,7}) == true % {true} / 'true', I tried changing the brackets to parentheses, but nothing seems to work.
                        for i=1:length(fileList)
                            app.UITablePlots.Data(i,7) = {true};
                        end

Any guidance would be appreciated - thank you!

Hey Connor,

When you assign data to UITable component, it'll remain the same variable type as original variable had. Therefore, in your case it'll be a numeric array, and you index into those using parantheses.

if app.UITablePlotHead.Data(3,7) % this will be true unless it equals to zero or it is empty
    % code
end
