GUI Problem with uipanel+axes+hist3() using GUIDE

Hello everbody,

I am having trouble with functions like hist3() using axes within uipanels. To give a simple example:

I create a new GUI with GUIDE (errorGUI.fig,errorGUI.m) and add a new uipanel called "uipanel1". In this panel I add an axes called "axes1".

Now I write the following code in the OpeningFcn of the m-File:

% Just a simple example: random matrix and hist3() function

A=rand(20,2);

hist3(handles.axes1, A);

If I save and run the changes I get the following errors:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Error using hg.uipanel/set The name 'renderer' is not an accessible property for an instance of class 'uipanel'.

Error in hist3 (line 297) set(get(cax,'parent'),'renderer','zbuffer');

Error in error_GUI>error_GUI_OpeningFcn (line 66) hist3(handles.axes1, A);

Error in gui_mainfcn (line 221) feval(gui_State.gui_OpeningFcn, gui_hFigure, [], guidata(gui_hFigure), varargin{:});

Error in error_GUI (line 42) gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I delete the uipanel and simple use axes1 inside the figure, everything works fine. But I really need panels containing several different axes inside.

Can anyone tell me what I have to do to make it work? Thank you very much in advance!
