How can I use the show robot function embedded in a MATLAB app/GUI

Hello,
I am trying to use these functions:
to plot and have an interactive rigid body tree in a figure that is embedded in a MATLAB app/GUI.
The routine way doesnt work:
show(app.ax_robot, lbr);
And it doesn't work as well. This outputs an error:
"Error using uicontrol
Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function."
Thanks

Unfortunately, embedding robot visualizations in an app figure / axis is not currently supported. We are aware of this limitation and we are exploring ways to enable this workflow.
