IPTImages
IPTIMAGES returns a list of images, or a GUI interface for the selection/viewing of images, in a user-specified directory. IF NO DIRECTORY IS SPECIFIED: shows images that ship with the Image Processing Toolbox (IPT), and creates a GUI interface for selecting/viewing them.
SYNTAX:
imgs = iptimages(showListbox,targetDir)
Returns in IMGS a cell array of the names of images in directory TARGETDIR. Additionally, if showListbox == 1, creates a UICONTROL listbox that allows selection and visualization of the images.
NOTE: Listbox display requires GUI files: IPTShowIms.fig and IPTShowIms.m (included). Also, this list/listbox includes all images in the IMDEMOS folder.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1.6.0.0 | A user brought to my attention (thank you, preeti!) that I had neglected to include a necessary function (imgformats). Apparently, no one who has downloaded this to date has been able to run it?!? Anyway, the function is now included. |
||
| 1.4.0.0 | V 2.0. Now supports browsing/refreshing to view images in different directories, export of images/maps (to automatically incremented variable names), display of selected metadata, and inclusion of demo images stored as MAT files. |
||
| 1.3.0.0 | Modified to allow specification of the target directory, though the default still shows IPT demo images. |
