Set focus to objects. When starting a Matlab GUI it is normally not possible to activate the cursor in an edit object. Before you can type, you'll have to click with the mouse in the edit field. With setfocus it is possible to activate the cursor with program code by passing the object handle to setfocus. setfocus simply simulate a mouseclick in the area of the object.
