Updating listbox and variable changing to old value at the end of the function in MATLAB GUI?

You have correctly identified the fix. More generally, I would say that you need to separately update each of the items that encode your GUI's state (i.e. Each of the items stored independently by the GUI).

It seems that you already fixed the problem. Nonetheless, I rewrote your example and tried to simplify it a bit.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
