Adding full figure edit options to an executable?

I have the same problem like i see other people had have for many year using the guide from matlab, and i wold like to know if currently, Matlab has found the answer for this.

The problem is, I have a matlab executable which generates a plot in a figure, but the figure only has bare minimum options available (legend, zoom, pan, etc) how do I turn on the full suite of options?

I only have all the edit plot options in the toolbar if i run the app from matlab, but when i try to make an executable for running the app without matlab, the toolbar functions that appear is minimun, and i need all the options for editing the plot.

Thanks for any help.

Why do you need them? Surely it is better to have the size of the axis hardcoded in either an absolute unit or with 'Units' set to 'Normalized'?

Having a peek at the properties, did you check if the 'SelectionHighlight' property is available in a GUI? It looks like toggling that is the same as clicking the cursor icon.

You cannot do that. The full set of plot editing options gives enough control to change the MATLAB code that is executed when the user does various things (like clicking on a point), but compiled executables can never import new MATLAB code.
