How to print the command window results on the MATLAB Online program.

After I run a program on the MATLAB Online application, how do I print what shows in the command window? Usually on the desktop app I can right click on the command window to do this. I would like to save the results as a pdf or print it via a printer. Thank you in advance for the help!

I don't know of a way to print this directly. One approach might be to use the diary feature (see here). Once turned on, MATLAB captures everything typed or outputted in the Command Window into the specified file. You can then download and print this file.

Hi @Cameron,

To print or save the Command Window output in MATLAB Online, there is no direct in-built function currently available.

However, you can use this approach as a workaround:

1. Copy the Output:

• Select the text in the Command Window.
• Right-click and choose "Copy" or press `Ctrl+C` (Cmd+C on Mac).

2. Paste into a Document:

• Open a text editor (e.g., Word, Google Docs).
• Paste the text using `Ctrl+V` (Cmd+V on Mac).

3. Save or Print:

• Save the document as a PDF or use the "Print" option to print it.

I hope this helps!
