UnHighlighting a subsytem in a Simulink model

Hello everyone,
As a beginner I am struggling with hilite_system functionality of Matlab. In my project I have to highlight certain blocks which I perform using hilite_system. But while unhighlighting these blocks, I have to perform each block individually. Their is an option in the menubar -> View - Remove Highlighting which removes all the highlighting of all the blocks. My question is that can I perform this(removing highlighting of all blocks by one command) via code?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have the path to the block(s) that was used with the hilite_system command? If yes, this might work to undo the highlighting:
>> set_param(gcb,'HiliteAncestors', 'none');

I think the best way is to use
This will remove all highlighting models
>>SLStudio.Utils.RemoveHighlighting(get_param(bdroot,'handle'))

Hi Kaustubha,
Thankyou very much for the reply. I do use similar trick by if true % hilite_system(handle,'none') end But the problem is that every time I change the hilite, the corresponding blocks pops ups and it is annoying. If you have any other solution let me know.
Thanks in advance. ThN

For anyone who might end up on this page in the future, what you can do to avoid this is copy the hilite_system fonction file and comment out the parts where the model screen is resized.
