Function Properties

This group of dialog boxes sets properties and values for the inputs and outputs. You can map inputs and outputs to ranges in your worksheet. You can also rename a function with any of these dialog boxes.

When you click the Edit button on the Function Viewer, the dialog box below displays.

Editing Required Inputs

• The Add and Delete buttons become active when you select varargin Arguments.
• Select the Outputs tab to switch to editing outputs.

Editing Function Arguments.   Function arguments may be either required arguments or varargin/varargout arguments:

• Required arguments appear first on the left or right sides of a MATLAB function and are not named varargin or varargout.
• varargin/varargout arguments always appear as the last input or output. They allow you to specify a variable number of arguments.

To edit required arguments, select the argument in the list and click the Properties button.

Before you can edit varargin/varargout arguments, you must first explicitly add them using the Add button. If the MATLAB function does not have varargin/varargout arguments, the ability to add arguments to the list is disabled. Once you have added varargin/varargout arguments, you can edit them in the same way as required arguments.

Editing varargin Inputs

Editing Required Outputs

• Select the Inputs tab to switch to editing inputs.
