Launching figure with uicontrols from notebook

[adityaapte]

My use case is to display data generated in Jupyter notebook on a figure that allows the of uicontrols. Does the kernel allow to launch a figure window with Octave uicontrol elements?

Not at the moment.

Uicontrols are tightly related to the octave GUI, which is obviously unusable in the notebook context, so it's possible we might never get those to work.

We are working however on an implementation of Jupyter Widgets directly in xeus-octave, which I think could allow you to do what you're doing with uicontrols, even though with a different syntax.
