Error while loading data with figure

I saved in a .mat file a bunch of variables, amongst which severale figure. When I try to load the file a receive the following error:

Operands to the || and && operators must be convertible to logical scalar values.
Error in matlab.graphics.internal.SubplotListenersManager/set.helper (line 58)

I noticed that the error only shows-up when I running with the debugger on "stop on error". To load the data, I am using:

load(['data_gen/data/' gen.filename], 'K_true', 'g_true', 'rho_true', 'K', 'g', 'G','grid', 'gen')

The file is 17.7MB. Thanks for your help.

1. Could you show your MATLAB code which saves the figure?

2. Do you see this error message for any figure? Or is this specific for some figures?

fig1 = figure;
plot(1:10);
save test fig1
load test

3. Which release of MATLAB are you using?
