Have Matlab figures docked by default

Question

In Matlab, it is possible to have figure windows docked in the main window. If there are several figures, each of them appears in a different "tab".

Is it possible to set up the system so that all figure windows will be created docked by default?

Answer 1

To dock figures by default, try calling:

set(0,'DefaultFigureWindowStyle','docked')

at the beginning

Answer 2

The point 'n' click alternative:

Click Desktop -> Figures.

Click the arrow underneath the cross in the top-right (tooltip is 'Dock Figures').

Save your desktop layout with Desktop -> Save Layout...
