When a control is disabled, clicking on it with the left mouse button does not
execute its callback routine. However, the left-click causes two other callback
routines to execute:
1 First the figure WindowButtonDownFcn callback executes
2 Then the control’s ButtonDownFcn callback executes
A right mouse button click on a disabled control posts a context menu, if one is
defined for that control. See the
Enable property description for more details.
