Topic: Create plot that depends on user inputs

Can I create a GUI using aplot that has boxes where a user can enter a values of specified types (character, integer, real, or logical) and the program does some calculations based on the inputs and displays a plot? The user should be able to change an input, which causes calculations to be done and the plot to be updated. Thanks.

Re: Create plot that depends on user inputs

Yes, you can, but you'll need to use the AppGraphics package for that task.  Aplot on Windows does have the ability to plot into an AppGraphics window.  You'll need to add a considerable amount of code, of course, to connect the inputs and buttons to the routines for plotting.

It is not possible on Linux or macOS, however, as we do not have an AppGraphics equivalent for those platforms.
