General settings including matfile settings
You can customize MATLAB® using the matlab.general settings. Access
matlab.general settings using the root
SettingsGroup object returned by the settings
function. For example, set the temporary value for the MAT-file save format to
'v7.3' (where the default is
'v7').
s = settings;
s.matlab.general.matfile.SaveFormat.TemporaryValue = 'v7.3'For more information about settings, see Access and Modify Settings.
SaveFormat — MAT-File version'v7' (default) | 'v7.3' | 'v6'MAT-File version to save MAT-files to, specified as
'v7.3', 'v7', or
'v6'.
For more information about MAT-file versions, see MAT-File Versions.
Example: s.matlab.general.matfile.SaveFormat.TemporaryValue =
'v7.3'
