Why do plot labels move within MATLAB 7.0 (R14) when I select and then deselect them?

Why do plot labels move within MATLAB 7.0 (R14) when I select and then deselect them?

I have annotated my plot using the TITLE, XLABEL, or YLABEL functions. If I use the "Edit Plot" button to select a label, and then click away from the lable to deselect, the label moves from its original position.

This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

This has been verified as a bug in MATLAB R14 in the way that the ploteditor handles text labels.

Currently, to work around this issue, avoid using the "Edit Plot" button to change the properties of titles and axis label. Customize your text while using the TITLE function. For example:

title('Title Text', 'Color', 'red')
