problem displaying image in axes

I am currently working on a gui which have :

• 1 push button to load image and 1 axes to display it.
• 1 push button to convert the loaded rgb image to ycbcr and an axes to display it.
• 1 push button to apply k means to the ycbcr image and then convert it back to rgb and an axes to display it.

upto conversion of the image to ycbcr (i.e upto 2nd point) it is working fine .

problem is that when i press 3rd push button to apply k means still i got no problem but it shows a blank white image in 3rd axes instead of showing the image on which i applied k means.

i have also checked my k means code in command window and it working fine and displaying the desired image but when i transfer it to gui im having problems..

please help guys !!

Check the class and ranges of your variables. Make sure they're all legal. In particular if you display a double image it must be in the range 0-1 unless you use the [] option in imshow.

imshow(doubleImage, []);

my final image is uint8

show your code using a standard MATLAB demo image.

function varargout = imsec(varargin)

% IMSEC MATLAB code for imsec.fig

% IMSEC, by itself, creates a new IMSEC or raises the existing

% singleton*.

%

% H = IMSEC returns the handle to a new IMSEC or the handle to

% the existing singleton*.

%

% IMSEC('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local

% function named CALLBACK in IMSEC.M with the given input arguments.

%

% IMSEC('Property','Value',...) creates a new IMSEC or raises the

% existing singleton*. Starting from the left, property value pairs are

% applied to the GUI before imsec_OpeningFcn gets called. An

% unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application

% stop. All inputs are passed to imsec_OpeningFcn via varargin.

%

% *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu. Choose "GUI allows only one

% instance to run (singleton)".
