The call to

set(Button_handle, 'enable', 'off')

is the one that disables the pressed button. Another way of coding it, if you
are in the callback for that button, is

set(src, 'enable', 'off')

and then at the end,

set(src, 'enable', 'on')


If you want to disable everything, then you could instead

set(gcf, 'WindowStyle', 'modal')

at the top of the callback routine, and then

set(gcf, 'WindowStyle', 'normal')

at the bottom of the routine. Possibly you might also have to set all the
uicontrol in that figure to be Enable off, but this mechanism would save you
from having to save and restore the state of all uicontrol in all other figures.
