Why it does not display the two images in the same window using the subplot function?

This is the code:

>> a = imread('peppers.png');
>> b = imread('moon.tif');
>> subplot(1,2,1), imshow(a)
>> subplot(1,2,2), imshow(b)

Why first show the first figure and then the second but in two different screens and not in the same?

What version of MATLAB? Maybe try rebooting.

The only reason I can think of is that maybe you have some MATLAB GUI application running asynchronously in the background, and which changes the current MATLAB figure behind your back.

Not, I have only this code.
