What is the approach to simultaneously changing the brightness on both the GUI axes and figure?

In my program, an image is uploaded to the axes and also produced in a separate figure.I am using the brighten command, but it only brightens the GUI axes. How do I get it to brighten the figure as well?

Thank You.

What do you mean by "brighten" the figure? Do you mean that you want the background color to become a lighter shade of gray (or even white)? If so, you can do this:

set( YourImageFigureHandle,'Color', [0.9 0.9 0.9]);  %this is a light gray
%you can set 'Color' to whatever color you want.

You have to change the colormap, or send a new and brighter image, to BOTH the axes on your GUI figure, and to the separate figure. That means you have to call brighten() twice, once for each figure:

brighten(handleToMyGUI, beta);
brighten(handleToMyOtherfigure, beta);
