Output regression tree as text

I'm currently creating a single regression tree using TreeDomain = fitrtree(Predictors,Predicted);
I need to save the output of view(TreeDomain) as text so I can use as a script in a non-Matlab environment. view(TreeDomain) puts the text on the screen, how can I store that output in a variable, or how can I interrogate the model to extract this information?

You can use evalc() to get the results into a character vector.

Unfortunately that throws and error
>> T=evalc(view(TreeDomain));
Error using classreg.learning.regr/CompactRegressionTree/view
Too many output arguments.
>> evalc(view(TreeDomain));
Error using classreg.learning.regr/CompactRegressionTree/view
Too many output arguments.
T=evalc('view(TreeDomain)');
Perfect, thanks

view(TreeDomain) will not return result to a variable. You can use "diary" function to save the result to a file:
diaray tree_result.txt
view(TreeDomain)
diary off
% The the tree output is stored in the specified file

Thanks, that worked well. Shame it goes to file instead of a variable though.
