i have installed new version of matlab , point existing matlab launcher to:

/usr/local/matlab/r2016b/bin/matlab

what procedure configure launcher point file?

open terminal (ctrl+alt+t) , type:

sudo nano /etc/environment

there, have list of paths binary/scripts read. example, if had matlab 2015a, might this:

path=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:usr/local/matlab/r2015a/bin
