Current Status
MTtbox is currently under test and further development
The main data structure is called: 'data'. It can be accessed from the Matlab command line by declaring data to be global.
global data
at any time. The following documentation will refer to fields in data. It also refers to the custom menu items by menu:name.

A project is saved by selecting: menu:File:Save as Having first saved a project a default Interaction Function is created by selecting Edit. A default project file (example of the default interaction function) contains lots of comments to provide help on how to develop the project. At present the Interaction Functions is not copied to the new project on each Save as command - this has to be done manually. |
