Replace a subplot title on a figure from another function in appdesigner

Hello, In appdesigner I have created an image on a subplot in a figure:

    f1=figure('position',pos);
    s1=subplot(1,3,1)  

Im using a roi.ellipse object with an event listener, to allow the user to move and resize the ellipse.(all works fine)

h = images.roi.Ellipse(gca,'Center',[xpeak xpeak2],'Semiaxes',[1.699*fwhm/2 1.699*fwhm2/2],'Color','g','StripeColor','r','LineWidth',1);         %1/e^2 = 1.699xfwhm  
el=addlistener(h,'ROIMoved',@app.allevents);    

what I want to do, is in the function "allevents" where I obtain the moved ellipse parameters, is to calculate the area and then replace the title of the sublot s1 with the area. But I'm having issues with changing the title.

    function allevents(app,src,evt)
        evname = evt.EventName;
        switch(evname)
            case{'MovingROI'}
                disp(['ROI moving Current Center: ' mat2str(evt.CurrentCenter)]);
                disp(['ROI moving Current SemiAxes: ' mat2str(evt.CurrentSemiAxes)]);
            case{'ROIMoved'}
                disp(['ROI moved Current Center: ' mat2str(evt.CurrentCenter)]);
                disp(['ROI moved Current SemiAxes: ' mat2str(evt.CurrentSemiAxes)]);
                a=evt.CurrentSemiAxes(1)
                b=evt.CurrentSemiAxes(2)
                area=pi*app.a*app.b
                title(s1,['Area=',num2str(area,'%.1f')])
        end
     end

I have found this works:

 h=get(gcf,'children')              
 title(h(3),['Area=',num2str(area,'%.1f')])

But Im not sure I shoud rely on the subplot(1,3,1) always being h(3).

As per my understanding, you want to add a title to the sub plot after some pre-processing.

It seems to me that the below solution is working in the latest version:

f1=figure;
s1 = subplot(1, 3, 1)
title(s1,'Area')

The get(gcf, ‘children’) function returns the handles for the sub plots in the reverse order (i.e., the last subplot as the first handle), as you may have observed. So, you can reverse it again as shown below:

h=get(gcf,'children')
h=h(end:-1:1)
title(h(1),'G1')
title(h(2),'G2')
title(h(3),'G3')

Now, you can use h(1) for subplot(1, 3, 1).

Thankyou for confirming that with my subplot consisting of 3 subplots, the firat one drawn i.e. subplot (1,3,1) will ALWAYS be h(3). Thats all I wanted to confirm
