How do I display figures on a local Ubuntu machine by using 'plot' function.

Hi

I am working on a remote Ubuntu machine that has Matlab, from my local Ubuntu machine. I established connection using 'ssh -X usenrame@remoteubuntu' I could run Matlab programs on the remote machine. But, when I use plot function to see figures displayed on my local desktop, I don't see any figure. I already set X11 forwarding to 'Yes' in my ssh_config file.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you
