save plot on axes as a fig file for later use

Hi

i wanted to know, that in my program i have an axes which i plot the hough matrix and then on the graph i plot the peaks which have a voting more than 10. i display it on the axes. i want to save that plot as a fig file so late i can retieve the fig file and x and y peak values in a different gui. i heard you use export_fig

would you do it the following way.

axes(handles.axes1); fig=isolate_subplot(gca); i=copyfig(fig); export_fig(gcf,'file','fig');

thanks
