dialog window to get a file(s) name(s), path and filter index
PathFileName = uigetfile() PathFileName = uigetfile(file_mask) PathFileName = uigetfile(file_mask, dir) PathFileName = uigetfile(file_mask, dir, boxTitle) PathFileName = uigetfile(file_mask, dir, boxTitle, multipleSelection) [PathFileName, Path] = uigetfile(..) [PathFileName, Path, FilterIndex] = uigetfile(..)
a string matrix which gives the file masks to use for file
selection. file_mask is written with Unix
conventions. The default value is "*".
A description of each mask may be provided in column#2, for example
["*.xcos|*.zcos", "Xcos files"; "*.bin","BIN files"].
a character string which gives the initial directory used for file search. By default uigetfile uses the previously selected directory.
a character string which gives the title of the uigetfile window. By default uigetfile's title is 'uigetfile'.
a boolean which allows to load only one file if it is at '%f' (false) or multiple files if it is at '%t" (true). By default uigetfile's multiple file selection is not enable.
matrix of strings which give the user selected file(s) (path +

is the user selected file(s) path if the user answers "Ok"

Selected filter index on the list box if the user answers
"OK", or "0" if the user answers
"Cancel".
Creates a dialog window for file(s) selection.
On Windows, Java component used by uigetfile browses also .zip archives then it is very slow with big .zip files.
To disable this feature: use regedit to rename HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.zip\CLSID key to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.zip\CLSID.bak.
To re-enable it: use regedit to rename HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.zip\CLSID.bak key to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.zip\CLSID.
