Managing Desktop Layouts
Overview of Desktop Layouts
When you end a session, MATLAB saves the current desktop arrangement. The next time you start MATLAB, the desktop appears like the way you left it. However, tools such as the Help browser, Web browser, and Array Editor do not reopen automatically, even if they were open when you ended the last session. You can use startup options to specify tools that you want to open on startup. For example, to have the Help browser open each time you start MATLAB, add helpbrowser to a startup.m file. For more information, see Startup Options. Read More
Startup Folder for the MATLAB Program
What Is the Startup Folder?
The startup folder is the current folder in the MATLAB application when it starts. It is convenient if you make the current folder upon startup be a folder that you frequently use. On Windows and Apple Macintosh platforms, a folder called userpath is added automatically to the search path upon startup, and is the default startup folder. On UNIX[1] platforms, you can set the userpath as the startup folder. The default value for userpath is, for example, Documents/MATLAB on Microsoft Windows Vistaâ„¢ platforms. You can specify a different default value for userpath, or specify a different startup folder. Read More
