How to set matlab to open all figure windows as floating windows

I am using a stacking window manager with linux (i3wm). Currently matlab opening all windows as normal windows including figure windows. And there is no attribute(window title, window role, ...) attached to the figure windows to catch the floating status. Otherwise I could add a rule to force these windows to be floating. Is there any internal way(matlab way) to open these windows as floating windows?

Hi Ramesh,

There is a way where you can arrange the figures using autoArrangeFigures.

Go through the above link, download, and extract the autoArrangeFigures.m file. Add this file to the Matlab path.

Here is an example of arranging figures

close all
%% make 10 figures
for i=1:10
    figure()    
end
autoArrangeFigures(5,2,1); 
%first and second arguments represent 5 rows and 2 columns in the grid of figures
%last argument is the monitor id(useful when using dual monitors)

The figure windows after the arrangement:-
