Strange behaviour with uigetfile in APPDesigner (not observed in GUIDE)

Hello.

I am updating my code from GUIDE and have found a strange effect using uigetfile. It works fine in GUIDE.

what happens is when I run this, whilst it works, my app switches and makes the matlab command window come to the front. Althought I can just reselect my app, its not ideal. Thanks for any pointers.

This is my code.

[file,path,idx]=uigetfile({'*.tif';'*.tiff';'*.RAW';},'Load Image',app.startfolder);    

where startfolder is defined as a public property

properties (Access = public)
        startfolder  %starting generic save / load folder

and initiated in the StartupFCN:

        function startupFcn(app)
            app.startfolder='C:\' ;%starting generic save / load folder
