Hi @Yeon Sub Sim,

To display only the "uiprogressdlg" and hide the parent "uifigure", we can follow the below method:

fig = uifigure(...);
d = uiprogressdlg(fig, ...);

fig.Visible = 'off';   % Hide the underlying figure
drawnow;              % Ensure UI updates

close(d);
fig.Visible = 'on';    % Show it again if needed

This quickly removes the figure window, leaving the progress dialog visible.
