zooming in only on x axis in app designer

hi - I am trying to zoom in on the x axis in MATLAB app Designer for a gui I am making. I can already zoom in by using

zoom(app.UIAxes,'on');

However when I use:

zoom(app.UIAxes,'xon');

I get this error:

Error using matlab.ui.control.UIAxes/zoom Unknown action character vector.

This also happens if I try to use yzoom too.

Any ideas how to fix this?

cheers

I'm using Matlab 2017b and the only supported function is zoom(app.UIAxes,'on');

When I tried zoom(app.UIAxes,'xon'); and zoom(app.UIAxes,'yon'); nothing happens, it doesn't even throw an error

Also looking for an answer. PING

I am trying to use zoom to change the proprties of a UIAxes in app designer. Using the below functions, I get an error.

zoom(UIAxes1,'yon'); %fails
zoom(UIAxes1,'xon'); %fails

zoom(UIAxes1,'on'); %does not fail, and works
zoom(UIAxes1,'off'); %does not fail, and works

Any thoughts? Perhaps it is a problem using it with an UIAxes, instead of a Figure?
