Hi, is it correct that GUIs built programatically (as an m file using uicontrol) can no longer be converted to a mlappinstall file in 2025a? It seems like my GUI (PIVlab) can now only be shared on file exchange as a "pure toolbox" that will be installed in a completely "random" folder (/…/…/…/AppData/Roaming/…/…/…/…/…). None of my users (including me) will intuitively know how to start the GUI. In older releases, an App could be added to the "App badge", making it very easy for new Matlab users to start the GUI. But there doesn’t seem to be a clean way to convert m-files to mlappisntall anymore. Previously an "App project" could be used together with the matlab.apputil.package could be used. Now Matlab tells me that "To package an app, create a MATLAB toolbox. "
I did that, but I cannot add an .m file as App.Hi, is it correct that GUIs built programatically (as an m file using uicontrol) can no longer be converted to a mlappinstall file in 2025a?
