How to add a custom library using add_block?

Hi, I created a custom library. This library contains only one subsytem block named RADAR. I am trying to use add_block and add this subsytem. Without any error the simulink file opens but the block does not appear. This is how I load my library.

load_system('libdeneme');

And these are some of the code lines I tried.

add_block('simulink/libdeneme/RADAR','autoCreateDeneme')

add_block('simulink/libdeneme/RADAR','autoCreateDeneme')

add_block('libdeneme/RADAR','autoCreateDeneme')

add_block('libdeneme/RADAR',)

Your syntax is not correct.

open_system('SourceLibFileName')
add_block('SourceLibFileName/RADAR','DestModelFileName/BlockName')

This is still not working. My new simulink project opens but the screen is empty. No blocks are placed.

Make sure your library model is loaded or opened. Make sure whatever your new model is created or opened, and then run the add_block() command.

I tried it again and it is still not working. Here is my coding.

>> open_system('libDeneme')

>> new_system('deneme')

>> save_system('deneme')

>> open_system('deneme')

>> add_block('libDeneme/RADAR','deneme/please')

There is no block named 'libDeneme/RADAR'

>> load_system('libDeneme')

>> add_block('libDeneme/RADAR','deneme/please')

There is no block named 'libDeneme/RADAR'

>> blockNames = find_system('libDeneme', 'Type', 'Block')

blockNames =

1×1 cell array

{'libDeneme/RADAR↵'}

[Fangjun Jiang]

You have an extra character "↵" in the block name in the library, most likely a carriage return. Remove it.

Thank you. This solved the problem.
