Toolbar function still active when it's deselected

In my App, I create an axis toolbar at the OpeningFcn using

app.HANDLES.Toolbar=axtoolbar(app.UIAxis,'default');

I want another graphical interaction function to be activated after user have adjusted (pan/zoom in/out) the axis using toolbar functions. Therefore, I need to deactivate the toolbar function first. I have the following lines for this purpose:

% turn off any active Toolbar function
for i=2:6 % except 1 (export dropdown) and 7 (restore view)
    app.HANDLES.Toolbar.Children(i).Value='off';
end

However, the deselection does not actually deactivate the toolbar function. Does anyone have any suggestions for this?

Thanks!

Hi Lang,

I understand that you want to turn off the visbility of the toolbar in your App.

A possible workaround is to 'reset' the Toolbar Handle Visibility after creating a plot in the UI Axes component like:

app.UIAxes.Toolbar.HandleVisibility = 'on'
app.UIAxes.Toolbar.HandleVisibility = 'off'

Another way can be using the following command and trying to determine if the issue is resolved:

app.UI_Axes.Toolbar.Visible = 'off'

You can find a similar example in the following link:
