Error while attempting mesh plot

I was experimenting in the Matlab live script editor and I tried to make a mesh plot of a hilbert spectrum, but instead of the plot I obtained an error:

Warning: Error occurred while executing the listener callback for event POST_REGION defined for class matlab.internal.language.RegionEvaluator:

Error using getByteStreamFromArray

Error during serialization

Error in matlab.internal.editor.figure.SerializedFigureState/serialize

Error in matlab.internal.editor.FigureProxy/createWebFigureSnapshot

Error in matlab.internal.editor.FigureManager

Error in matlab.internal.editor.FigureManager

Error in matlab.internal.editor.FigureManager.saveSnapshot

Error in matlab.internal.editor.FigureManager.snapshotAllFigures

Here is the problematic code:

mesh(seconds(t),f,hs, 'EdgeColor', 'none', 'FaceColor', 'interp') 
xlabel('Time (s)')
ylabel('Frequency (Hz)')
zlabel('Instantaneous Energy')

Any idea why I am getting this error?

Is it possible that you ran out of memory?

Hi Pedro,

It is my understanding that you encountered the error "Error using getByteStreamFromArray" while plotting in the Live Editor.

As a workaround, you can add the following command immediately after your plotting command(s):

>> uicontrol('Visible','off')

This will prevent the figure from being serialized, and hence prevent the error. Note, that this will cause the figure to then both be displayed in the Live Script and in a new figure window.

Hi Gowthami

Thank you, your command worked in my case.
