As of R2020b ButtonGroup and Panel both support Enable when the button group or panel is parented to a uifigure.

uipanel cannot be enabled or disabled: they can just be set to be visible or not.

switch get(hObject, 'Value')
case 1:
  set(handles.panel_1, 'Visible', 'on');
  set(handles.panel_2, 'Visible', 'off');
case 2:
  set(handles.panel_1, 'Visible', 'off');
  set(handles.panel_2, 'Visible', 'on');
end

Parameter Enable for popup menu control:

• on - regular menu
• off - menu blocked with grey background
• inactive - menu blocked without grey background

[Walter Roberson]

That is correct for uicontrol style popup . It does not apply for uipanel
