Saving multiple figures to a named folder

Hi there

I am running a function using several macros for example

 function fftval(in,out)
 x = load(in); % or importdata or csvread or xlsread or whatever your reading function is.
 y = fft(x);
figure(1)
plot(y)
 save(out,'y')

file 2: called "processall"

 in = {'file1.mat','file2.mat'};
 out = {'w1','w2'};

 for i = 1:numel(in)
  fftval(in{i},out{i})
 end

However I want to also save my figures to a folder called fftplots that is on my desktop. How can I do this?

Try this,

baseFileName = sprintf('figure_%d.jpg',k); % Specify some particular, specific folder: fullFileName = fullfile('D:\myPlots', baseFileName); figure(k); % Activate the figure again. export_fig(fullFileName); % Using export_fig instead of saveas.

basePath = 'YOUR/PATH/%d.jpeg' for k = 1:length(jpegFiles)

path = sprintf(basePath,k) imwrite..

   function fftval(in,out)
   x = load(in); % or importdata or csvread or xlsread or whatever your reading function is.
   y = fft(x);
  figure(1)
  plot(y)
   save(out,'y')
  saveas(gcf, 'figureName.jpg')

something like this

Thank you so much but how would you go about naming them something different each time like if I put in an extra line out2 with all the names how could I then put that into my main function?

I am not sure if understood you correctly, but you can save them based on your input file name

append '.jpg' to your input file name before you save the figure,

figureName = [ in '.jpg']  %%if you have an extension in your input file make sure to remove it.
saveas(gcf, figureName)
