names of the figures

Hello guys again, i have a problem with the names of the figure,

If i want to change the name of figure1 for other name is fine:

set(figure(1),'Name','amplitude','Numbertitle','off')...but, muy problem is
that I want to try to put a special name mixture of a string 'amplitude' plus a number:

Example:

a=[5 6 7]

how can I show the names: amplitude a(1),i.e amplitude 5, amplitude a(2), i.e amplitude 6 and amplitude 7 in the figures (1), (2) and (3)?
 I think with the property 'Name' is not possible because
only admit string, and my name is compose for a string=amplitude plus a number=a(x).

Thanks

Use num2str or sprintf.

Try something like:

set(figure(1),'Name',['amplitude' num2str(a(1)],'Numbertitle','off')

Please andy, can you help me with it?

if i use 'Name','XXXX',...everything is a string...how can i use num2str or sprintf as a property instead of Name?

Thanks

Thank youvery much someone!!!

Also NUM2STR allows format specifiers like SPRINTF, so one could avoid CAT.

set(figure(1),'Name',num2str(a(1),'amplitude %i'),'Numbertitle','off')
