How do I get rid of the error "Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function."

I added this line to my startup.m so that the zoom and marker tools are available on the toolbar by default

set(groot,'defaultFigureCreateFcn',@(fig,~)addToolbarExplorationButtons(fig))

but recently I have started getting the error

"Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function."

when I create a uifigure.

How can I fix this?

I found a solution.

Change the line in startup.m to this:

set(groot,'defaultFigureCreateFcn',@(fig,~)addToolbarExplorationButtons(fig(~matlab.ui.internal.isUIFigure(fig))));

The function matlab.ui.internal.isUIFigure() test if the figure is a uifigure so this way it calls addToolbarExplorationButtons with a pointer to an empty figure if the test for a uifigure is true and to the desired figure if it is false.
