Content of uiFigure lost when using savefig()

Hello there,

lately I have been working with uifigures in the following setting:

I run some experiments with a Matlab script which produces a lot of figures. Therefore, I created a uifigure with some Tab-Groups where I can present my experiment results in a nice way (see the picture below).

These experiments take a long time to run through so I don't want to run it every time anew but I would like to be able to save the uiFigure once it is presented as depicted. I tried some of the following code to do that

savefig(fig,'UI_Results.fig')

saveas(fig,'saved_figure_fig','fig')
saveas(fig,'saved_figure_m','m')
saveas(fig,'saved_figure_mfig','mfig')
saveas(fig,'saved_figure_mmat','mmat')

hgsave(fig, 'saved_figure_hgsave')

function fig = make_ui()
% this function produces my uiFigure
fig         = uifigure;
% Here is some code:
% ...
end

However, loading the saved figure is disappointing as all the content seems to be lost (see the picture below).

Did I miss something when saving the figure or is there no such way to save the figure for later use?

Any help is very much appreciated,

Daniel

Here is my implementation:

• A Matlab sctipt 'run_experiments.m'
• A Matlab class 'simulation_results.m'

Hi Daniel. I dont have a solution but I have run into a similar issue where I have a uigridlayout on a uifigure and it doesn't open properly. I have contacted Matlab support and they have indicated its a bug and are currently looking into it
