Launch a desktop layout programmatically

In the Environment seciton of the desktop's Home Tab, there is an area for saving and loading one's preferred desktop layouts:

What I'd like to know is, once you've created and saved a desktop layout, is there a way to launch it programmatically?

Hi Matt,

As I understand from your question, you want to launch a saved desktop layout programmatically. For that you can run the commands shown below in MATLAB command window:

desktop = com.mathworks.mde.desk.MLDesktop.getInstance;
desktop.restoreLayout('fav');

Here "fav" is the name of the layout you had saved. Please note the commands are case senstitive.

Hope this helps!

Excellent! Many thanks.

It works well, but in the Editor it shows a Code Analyzer warning:

Do you know what may eventually replace it, or if there is any more time-proof method?

It doesn't show such warning in my editor though but let me see some other workaround

Couldnt find any other workaround, but you can use this for the time being!
