    _______________________________________________________

Details:

I run code similar to the following:

WBH = waitbar(0,'foo')

...

waitbar(.25, WBH, 'bar')

What happens is the correct figure opens during the first call, but the second
call causes a blank figure to open and a third figure opens with a new waitbar
that works properly. The end result is three open figures.  If, however I open
a blank figure before the first waitbar command and pause for one second, the
waitbar function works correctly.

figure
pause(1)
WBH = waitbar(0,'foo')
...
waitbar(.25, WBH, 'bar')

I hope this is descriptive enough. Keep up the great work!
