How to lock the focus on a GUI window?

Hi all,

I'm working with a multiple window GUI, and a feature I want is to lock the focus on a specific window at some point so the user cannot switch to the other windows unless they close the current one. Is that doable?

Thanks!

Niko

See documentation

WindowStyle
    {normal} | modal | docked
   [...]
   Modal figures remain stacked above all normal figures and the 
   MATLAB Command Window.  
   [...]
   When multiple modal windows exist, the most recently created 
   window keeps focus and stays above all other windows until it 
   becomes invisible, or is returned to WindowStyle normal, or is
   deleted. At that time, focus reverts to the window that last 
   had focus.
