Steps:
1. open one figure -> click 'label' symbol -> right click on the plot -> 'Edit Text Update Function' --> save as to your favorite PATH

2. edit the file 'NewCallback.m'
mofidy 'num2str(pos(2),4)' to 'num2str(pos(2),8)' or whatever you liked

Freefilesync:
automatically synchronizing two folders
In Task Scheduler, create a Basic Task with
“C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\FreeFileSync.exe”
as the program and
“C:\Users\ValuedUser\Batch Files\SyncSettings.ffs_batch”
as the optional added argument. Is it critical that both of the above options be inside double quotes.

Your configured editor (probably vi) will pop up with an already loaded file.

Search for the lines containing / and /usr/bin (lines like %dir %attr(0755, root, root) "/"), and remove them. They are starting in about line 340.
(I removed the line with /usr as well.)

Save end exit.
Answer yes. It will then tell you the location of the fixed rpm.
