Hi,
I have a question about changing a GUI figure icon. I know that if I do that I would violate Matlab terms...but would it be posible to add my custom icon next to the Matlab icon so that both sides (me as a user and Matlab) were OK?
Thanks, Peter

So you're saying that I can only change the icon of the compiled EXE file but not the icon in the figure...So when I see my program it will have my icon but when I run it it will still have Matlab icon...is that right? Maybe I didnt get it properly...
Thanks, Peter

I don't recall. I'd have to check, but you can do that as well as I can.

The Icon property has been available in a uifigure since since R2020b and it became available in regular figures in R2025a.
fig = figure('Icon','peppers.png')
