In the subsystem mask help in Simulink, how to access pictures in the same folder as the model?

I am writing a mask help in html for a subsystem block. I can access the image by using:

<<C---Users--------mask_help--image.png>>

The thing is that I don't want to go into the mask and changing the address every time I change the computer. I would like to copy the model and the folder with the pictures and keep it running.

If I use:

<<--mask_help-image.png>>

it goes to the temp folder where the html is generated and I want the folder where the model is.

Quite simple but I have been trying without luck. I am using Windows.

Thanks!

Is the 'mask_help/image.png' relative to the path when your Simulink library exists? If so, perhaps you can find the exact path by using something like "which mylibname" and pre-pend the full path? This is typically how it's done in custom libraries.

I've never used libraries. However, I don't know if that would be a solution. What I want is to send the Simulink model plus the folder and the model has to be able to find the path without modifying anything.

Thanks for your help Kaustubha.

How about using fullfile(pwd, 'mask_help', 'image.png') if the current directory is always going to be the location of the model?

That is what I was looking for!

Many thanks Kaustubha!
