How can I use the show robot function embedded in a MATLAB app/GUI

Hello,

I am trying to use these functions:

https://ch.mathworks.com/help/robotics/ref/rigidbodytree.show.html and https://ch.mathworks.com/help/robotics/ref/interactiverigidbodytree.showfigure.html

to plot and have an interactive rigid body tree in a figure that is embedded in a MATLAB app/GUI.

The routine way doesnt work:

show(app.ax_robot, lbr);

I also tried the work around that is described Here (https://ch.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/517676-how-plot-step-lsim-in-an-uifigure-in-app-designer).

And it doesn't work as well. This outputs an error:

"Error using uicontrol

Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function."

Thanks

Unfortunately, embedding robot visualizations in an app figure / axis is not currently supported. We are aware of this limitation and we are exploring ways to enable this workflow.

any updates to overcome this limitation?
