How to change the border color of a pushbutton in guide

13 views (last 30 days)
I am trying to see if I can add a color to the border of a pushbutton.
I checked some undocumented matlab and found this: link
jEdit = findjobj(handles.open) ; % handles.open -- pushbutton name - open
lineColor = java.awt.Color(1,0,0); % =red
thickness = 3; % pixels
roundedCorners = true;
newBorder = javax.swing.border.LineBorder(lineColor,thickness,roundedCorners);
jEdit.Border = newBorder;
jEdit.repaint; % redraw the modified control
This works for edit textbox but not for pushbutton.
I went through a similar question: Here. It shows that buttons border style is not affected after changing anything from default setting.
Any help is great.

dropping the button to uipanel works using the 'ShadowColor '. Thanks.
But if I have to do this for all pushbuttons with a specific bordercolor it becomes more tedious.
Is this the only way for now?

Perhaps you could hook in to DefaultUicontrolCreateFcn ?
