uistack figure simulator top

Hello,

software ( main figure) in gui has name Simulator. If I have opened two and more figures, and I use

set(0,'CurrentFigure',findobj('type','figure','name','Simulator')) 
f=gcf  
uistack(f, 'top')

than Simulator is on the top. But if there is opened only Simulator, and I use above code, than appears main Matlba Window on the top.

How can I do, that Simulator will be always on the top?

Thank you

I solved it by this code:

set(0,'CurrentFigure',findobj('type','figure','name','Simulator')) 
f=gcf;  
uistack(f,'top');
figure(f);
set(0,'CurrentFigure',f);
uistack(f,'top');

According to the documentation, this should be sufficient already:

FigH = findobj(allchild(0), 'flat', 'name', 'Simulator');
figure(FigH);

You save 5 lines of code, :-)

Thank you

For example, I have two figures, one is main.

If main is top, and I use

uistack(FigH,'top');

than second figure I show for realy short time, after that, main figure is in the top.....why there is switching between figures? if main is on the top?

code:

    FigH = findobj(allchild(0), 'flat', 'name', 'Simulator');
    figure(FigH);
    uistack(FigH,'top');

sometimes doesn't work, sometimes main figure is not on top...:-O
