dear community,
when i open my property inspector from the menue of a figure, i get the following error
Dot indexing is not supported for variables of this type.
Error in matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.PropertyInspectorManager>@(x)x.ModeManager.CurrentMode.Name=="Standard.EditPlot" (line 112)
'-function', @(x) x.ModeManager.CurrentMode.Name == "Standard.EditPlot",...
Error in matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.PropertyInspectorManager.removeFigureDTClientListenersIfNeeded (line 111)
allFigures = findobj(0,'-depth',1,'type','figure',...
Error in matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.PropertyInspectorManager/temporarilyStopInspectorListeners (line 347)
this.removeFigureDTClientListenersIfNeeded();
Error in matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.propertyinspector (line 93)

Error in matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.propertyinspector (line 19)
matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.propertyinspector('show');
Error in viewmenufcn (line 52)
matlab.graphics.internal.propertyinspector.propertyinspector('toggle');
i recently upgraded from 2021a to 2022a, in the old version this did not happen.
i attached the figure if this is needed
best regards
Jonas

It works for me with your figure in r2022a.

yes, i tried also another figure and there the error persists
what ever, after restarting matlab, the problem is gone now. Weird. Reminds me of the problem where the property inspector could not switch its target anymore until matlab was restarted.

Hi, I had the same issue with Matlab R2022b and R2023a when trying to open property inspector from command line or via figure toolbar button (figure opene using figure, not uifigure). As a workaround I just fixed it (caution: admin rights required) by adding a non-empty check in that function callback:
'-function', @(x) ~isempty(x.ModeManager.CurrentMode) && x.ModeManager.CurrentMode.Name == "Standard.EditPlot",...
