Hi all,
I need to write subscripts into static text objects in a GUI created with GUIDE. I googled the problem and found several solutions, including HTML code like:
'<HTML> K<SUB>L</SUB></HTML>'
The problem is that when I type this in the String field of the static text, it shows there K{L} (L is a subscript) properly, however, on the GUI the whole text including HTML etc. appears instead of the proper version I see when I open the properties of the static text. Can I get this to work somehow?
Another solution I found was using jLabel instead of uicontrol, but I did the rest of the GUI with GUIDE, and it would take a lot of time to replace all static texts with jLabels.
Any solution is welcome. Thank you, László

You can use FEX: uibutton to render the label using the text() command, which accepts LaTeX formatting, and copy the the result as pixel image to the button.
