Hi,
I want to suppress figures as they are created so that they don’t pop up on the screen. I have used:

h=figure('Visible','off');

i.e.
h=figure('Name','Output_Plots','NumberTitle','off','visible','off');
x=[1 2];
y=[3 4];

plot(x,y);
xlabel('x'),ylabel('y');
title('Outputs');

saveas(h,'Output_Plots','fig')

However, when I try to open the saved matlab figure in the folder then it’s been saved in, I’m unable to open it.
Am I missing something?

Thanks.

That's because the figure still has the property 'visible' set to 'off'

You could use OPENFIG or perhaps make it visibile by:

set(get(0,'children'),'visible','on')
