Need help using menu option

choice1=menu('Choose first color of resistor','BLACK','BROWN','RED','ORANGE','YELLOW','GREEN','BLUE','VIOLET','GRAY','WHITE');

I am trying to assign these colors a certain value for each one. I want the menu to display the color names as well.

Try this:

userSelection = menu('Choose first color of resistor',...
  'BLACK','BROWN','RED','ORANGE','YELLOW',...
  'GREEN','BLUE','VIOLET','GRAY','WHITE')
value = userSelection - 1

Your menu buttons already do display the color names, so there's nothing additional needed for that.
