How to clear the error "Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function." ?

Hello ,

I'm seeing the following error,

"Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function."

for the below code lines

figs = findall(groot,'Type','Figure');
for i= 1:length(figs) 
    shh = get(0,'ShowHiddenHandles'); %finds the open figures
    set(figs(i),'PaperPositionMode','auto');
    set(figs(i),'InvertHardcopy','off');
    saveas(figs(i),sprintf('TC%d(%d).png',j,i+1));
end

The above lines are needed to take the screenshots of the test results

Any suggesstions are highly appreciated

Thank you in advance!

I presume you want that code to iterate over all figures but not uifigures.

You could close all the uifigures before running the code, or you can modify the code to skip uifigures as follows:

figs = findall(groot,'Type','Figure');
for i= 1:length(figs)
    if matlab.ui.internal.isUIFigure(figs(i))
        % if it's a uifigure, skip it
        continue
    end
    set(figs(i),'PaperPositionMode','auto');
    set(figs(i),'InvertHardcopy','off');
    saveas(figs(i),sprintf('TC%d(%d).png',j,i+1));
end
