figure doesn't appear in new window

I'm trying to plot two figures

for p = 1:2
    figure(1)
    subplot(1,2,p)
    plt = plot(1:10,rand(10,1),'LineWidth', 1.5);
    p =p+1;
end
for p = 1:2
    figure(2)
    subplot(1,2,p)
    plt = plot(1:10,rand(10,1),'LineWidth', 1.5);
    p =p+1;
end

For some reason, the second figure doesn't appear in a new figure window. figure(2) is overwritten on figure(1).

Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Thanks

Are you sure? because Figure 2 window lies exactly on Figure 1 window. Just check the matlab windows.

If you want to shift the focus to figure1 :

drawnow;
figure(1)

Add these 2 lines at the end of code.

It turns out when I change figure(1) and figure(2) to figure(2) and figure(3)

I see both plots. the problem is with figure(1) window. This is strange

Haha. It is. try close all at the start of code with fig 1 and 2. you may have some luck :)
