How to Interrupt Fitting

Procedure

Select the Command Window to make it active, and press 'Ctrl+C' simultaneously to interrupt fitting. This stops the program from executing completely. No results or plots are generated. This works nicely in R2008a, but not for example in R2006a.

A more delicate way to interrupt the fitting process is available if the 'Show fit progress' option is chosen in the gui (in the 'Plotting options' panel). This provides a 'Pause' and 'Stop' button. The latter still interrupts the fitting process, but the results and plots are generated as if it converged to a solution.
