The following functions are obsolete in MATLAB 7.3 (R2006b): axlimdlg, edtext,
menubar, pagedlg, umtoggle.
Compatibility Considerations

generate a warning message. As soon as possible, replace any occurrences you may have
of these functions with the function(s) shown in the following table, if any, or with other
suitable code.
Function Replacement
axlimdlg None
edtext Set the Editing property of the text object.
menubar Set the MenuBar property of the figure to none.
pagedlg pagesetupdlg
umtoggle Set the Checked property of the uimenu object.
Colored Buttons on Windows XP
Setting the background color of user interface control (uicontrol) push buttons and toggle
buttons on Windows XP now results in flat, colored buttons.
Compatibility Considerations
Prior to this release, if you set the background color of a push button or toggle button
to any color other than the factory color on Windows XP, the color displayed only as a
border around the button. With this release, any such buttons will display as flat, colored
buttons with a simple border.
