                                Why is it important for you to export

                                <br>

                                screen capture software does not seem to
                                me to be a big handicap, but I might be

                                    Subject: [Scilab-users] Exporting
                                    figures containing uicontrols to any
                                    format<br>
                                    <br>
                                    Hi everyone,<br>
                                    <br>
                                    After a long fight to build fancy
                                    graphics with uicontrols to demo
                                    some physics, I am now stuck because
                                    of bug 14502 ( <a
                                      moz-do-not-send="true"
                                      href="https://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14502"
                                      rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bugzilla.scilab.org/sh<wbr>ow_bug.cgi?id=14502</a>
                                    ).<br>
                                    Basically, I have no way to export
                                    my figure to any format (ie no
                                    exportUI(gcf()) and no
                                    xs2something).<br>
                                    As any of you ever managed to export
                                    a figure with uicontrols where both
                                    the plots and the uicontrols are
                                    well rendered?<br>
                                    <br>
                                    Antoine<br>
                                    <br>
                                    PS: for a bit of context, try the
                                    following:<br>
                                    <br>
                                    1) Demos->GUI->Uicontrols 2
                                    //(or any with uicontrols)<br>
                                    2) h=gcf();xs2svg(h, 'h.svg'); // or
                                    any other format<br>
                                    3) open h.svg, it's empty<br>
