How to control UI progress dialog box 'uiprogressdlg' size and position

Hi,

I'm using 'uiprogressdlg' in App Disigner to create progress dialog box.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find in its properties how to control this object appearance so I can resize and position it by code.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Ziv

I also have this question. How can i adjust the size of the parent figure without knowing the size of the uiprogressdlg. Its not showing as a child of the figure

The figure generated by uiprogressdlg should not be a child of the figure and does not have accessible position properties.

As an alternative to uiprogressdlg you could use waitbar or generate your own progress dialog function such as the one demonstrated in the following links.
