The graphics performed by the Peter Corke Robotics Toolbox are only on traditional figures.
It isn't that App Designer specifically rejects those graphic calls, but rather that Robotics Toolbox makes no attempt to work with uifigures, and will probably end up opening its own traditional figures. You would have challenges in embedding the graphics from the Robotics Toolbox into uifigures .

Thanks for your prompt reply Walter. If this is the case, is there any solution or recommendation for me ? :)

I looked at the toolbox a couple of years ago. I seem to recall that it was relatively well written from the point of view of ensuring that every graphics operation is applied against a specific container, instead of just assuming that the "current" figure or "current" axes was always the right one. If my memory is accurate (and I did not look at the code for long), then it might just be a matter of changing figure() calls to uifigure(). But more likely when you talk about app designer, you would want the graphics to be in particular axes that you had already created; setting that up might take more work.
