getFile
getFile
Similar to uigetfile, it opens a dialogue to get a file, but it also
remembers the last folder location, so the user will not need to navigate
to the same folder multiple times.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Use [dataFilename dataFolder] = getFile(filterSpec)
filterSpec: The type of file to show. For example, if set to '*.txt'
(OPTIONAL) only text files will be visible for choosing.
DEFAULT: *.*, so all files are shown.
title: This parameter will be the title of the dialogue box.
(OPTIONAL) DEFAULT: No title will be shown.
dataFilename: The name of the chosen file.
dataFolder: The path of the chosen file.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
USAGE EXAMPLE:
[fileName pathName] = getFile('*.jpg');
In this example a dialogue will open and only show all jpg files. The
name of the chosen file and the path to it are stores in fileName and
pathName respectively.
