Uipanel always on top in 2014b?

In the old days, this code would stack the objects in order of creation.

f=figure('units','pixels','position',[200 200 600 600])
a1= axes('parent',f,'units','pixels','position',[20 20 200 200],'color',[1 1 0])
u = uipanel('units','pixels','position',[50 50 300 300],'backgroundcolor',[1 0 1])
a = axes('parent',f,'units','pixels','position',[200 200 200 200],'color',[0 1 1])

But in 2014b it puts the uipanel on top, and reflects this in the ordering of the get(f,'children').

furthermore,

set(f,'children',flipud(get(f,'children')))

Won't run when the figure contains a uipanel.

Am i correct that there is no longer any way to stack a uipanel underneath an axes?

Yes, you will need to parent the uicontrols to the uipanel. There is an app to help find these occurrences
