sets a preference value
Syntax
swpref.setpref(name, value)
Description
swpref.setpref(name, value) sets the value of name
preferences.
Note: The preferences are reset after every restart of Matlab, unlike the
Matlab built-in preferences that are persistent between Matlab sessions.
If you want certain preferences to keep after closing matlab, define them
in the
startup.m file. Warning: This is a legacy function. It is better to use ‘pref = swpref’ and then
use regular ‘value = pref.name’ or ‘get(pref, name)’ syntax.
