how to save anovan figure as a .fig?

i'm using anovan in a loop to generate ANOVA for multiple variables,

and i was not able to save the generated figure as a .fig

i was wondering if there is a way to do so?

It is likely not possible to save the image, however anovan creates a table with the same information if you request it, and it is certainly possible to save that —

y = [52.7 57.5 45.9 44.5 53.0 57.0 45.9 44.0]';
g1 = [1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2]; 
g2 = {'hi';'hi';'lo';'lo';'hi';'hi';'lo';'lo'}; 
g3 = {'may';'may';'may';'may';'june';'june';'june';'june'};

[p,Tbl] = anovan(y,{g1,g2,g3})                                                      % Return Table Of Results

p = 3×1

0.4174 0.0028 0.9140

Tbl = 6×7 cell array
    {'Source'}    {'Sum Sq.' }    {'d.f.'}    {'Singular?'}    {'Mean Sq.'}    {'F'       }    {'Prob>F'  }
    {'X1'    }    {[  3.7813]}    {[   1]}    {[        0]}    {[  3.7813]}    {[  0.8160]}    {[  0.4174]}
    {'X2'    }    {[199.0013]}    {[   1]}    {[        0]}    {[199.0013]}    {[ 42.9460]}    {[  0.0028]}
    {'X3'    }    {[  0.0612]}    {[   1]}    {[        0]}    {[  0.0612]}    {[  0.0132]}    {[  0.9140]}
    {'Error' }    {[ 18.5350]}    {[   4]}    {[        0]}    {[  4.6338]}    {0×0 double}    {0×0 double}
    {'Total' }    {[221.3788]}    {[   7]}    {[        0]}    {0×0 double}    {0×0 double}    {0×0 double}

writecell(Tbl, 'MyAnovanResults.txt')                                               % Write Table Of Results To Text File
Tanovan = readtable('MyAnovanResults.txt', 'VariableNamingRule','preserve')         % Read Table Of Results

Tanovan = 5×7 table
     Source      Sum Sq.    d.f.    Singular?    Mean Sq.       F         Prob>F  
    _________    _______    ____    _________    ________    ________    _________

    {'X1'   }     3.7813     1          0         3.7813      0.81602      0.41743
    {'X2'   }        199     1          0            199       42.946    0.0028037
    {'X3'   }    0.06125     1          0        0.06125     0.013218      0.91401
    {'Error'}     18.535     4          0         4.6338          NaN          NaN
    {'Total'}     221.38     7          0            NaN          NaN          NaN

The anovan function has other outputs as well that you may want to consider requesting.
