how can I change the current axes in a GUI?

Hi, how can I change the current axes in a GUI? I try to use the line function, but I don’t know how to activate the right axes for plotting in the wanted figure. I guess, there should be a simple solution, but I can’t find.
Greetings

Here's one example:
axes(handles.axes2); %set the current axes to axes2
axes(h) makes existing axes h the current axes and brings the figure containing it into focus. It also makes h the first axes listed in the figure's Children property and sets the figure's CurrentAxes property to h. The current axes is the target for functions that draw image, line, patch, rectangle, surface, and text graphics objects.

Hi! My problem is that when I try to plot an animatedline into axis1, instead of plotting there, another window is opened. also, when I try to use axes(handles.axes1) it says:
ans =
handle to deleted Axes
Mi code is here:
function Medir_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
s = abrir_puerto();
handles.x=1:20;
handles.h=animatedline('Marker','o','LineWidth',1,'Color','k');
for i=1:(length(handles.x))
handles.distancia(i)=fscanf(s,'%d');
addpoints(handles.h,i,handles.distancia(i));
drawnow;
end
cerrrar_puerto(s);
I want it to be plotted in my Matlab GUI.
Thanks, Itziar

You should start a new question rather than post this as an answer.
You aren't specifying any axes though.
doc animatedline
In common with most plotting functions this includes a syntax that allows you to specify the axes handle as the first argument. Use it!

oh, sorry i didn't notice, i'm new in this kind of matters.
The probelm is that if i specify axes in animatedlines like this it comes to the error below.
handles.h=animatedline('Marker','o','LineWidth',1,'Color','k','Parent', handles.axes1);
Error using animatedline While setting property 'Parent' of class 'AnimatedLine': Cannot set property to a deleted object

You can see this example : x = 1000*rand(40,1); y = rand(40,1); scatter(x,y) xtickangle(45) ytickangle(90)
