Modification of the Matlab UISTACK function

UISTACK2 solves a problem reported in the MATLAB newsgroup comp.soft-sys.matlab about UISTACK behavior. This problem faced in R12.1 version, still occur in R14SP3.

See "[UISTACK] Problem with patch and line objects." in the newsgroup.

Exemple :

figure

subplot(2,1,1);
plot([1 5],[2 7]);
p=patch([2 4 4 2],[3 3 4 4],'r');
uistack(p,'bottom');
% the red patch SHOULD be placed under the blue line
title('UISTACK behavior')

subplot(2,1,2);
plot([1 5],[2 7]);
p=patch([2 4 4 2],[3 3 4 4],'r');
uistack2(p,'bottom');
% the red patch IS placed under the blue line
title('UISTACK2 behavior')

UISTACK2 is basically based on the original UISTACK function (by Loren Dean from TMW). Its use differs by the add of an "undo" feature.
