Change Edit Filed text from external function

I am trying to design a GUI console, named e.g. MainConsole where input values are entered and then sent to an external function for further calculations. If in this function a cetain value, e.g. x is generated, and I want to take it back to my console and write it into and edit field (or basically any interactive object, named DPApprox), how can I do that? I tried this:

MainConsole.LeftPanel.DPPanel.DPApprox.Text=string(x)

and did not receive an error message, but the value was not printed into the Edit Field (DPApprox in this case) and MATLAB gave this message:

ExtruderMain =

struct with fields:

LeftPanel: [1×1 struct]

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

The syntax which have used to update the edit field's text is correct. But could you check the data type of 'x' before converting it to string.

I could further help you if you can provide me the details about the output of the function where x is calculated and how you are passing it from the function to the GUI.
