How to terminate or break the pause function

Hi all,

I have a question related to pause function. My code is inside a GUI and when I click a button it starts to pause for 100 secondes. I have another quit button when I click on it, the gui will close. My question is that after quiting gui, the pause code is still running. Is there any method to stop it with no errors?

Thanks a lot

Tonghui - rather than using a while loop with a pause function to periodically perform a task, use a timer instead so that you can start and stop it at will. See https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/284202-how-to-plot-a-real-time-signal-with-axes-automatically-updating for an example.
