Open image in Gui from menu

I am trying to write a simple gui that guides someone through collecting morphometric data from an image. The GUI "works" first time through, but when I want to move on to the next imge, I get errorrs related to handles.ImagesAxis.XLim - but I suspect it is related to a need to reset the image somewhere.

The specific error received was

Unrecognized property 'XLim' for class 'matlab.graphics.primitive.Image'.

Error in NewImTool>Image_Menu_Open_Image_Callback (line 249)

handles.ImageAxis.XLim = [0 m];

Error in gui_mainfcn (line 95)

feval(varargin{:});

Error in NewImTool (line 42)

gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

Error in

matlab.graphics.internal.figfile.FigFile/read>@(hObject,eventdata)NewImTool('Image_Menu_Open_Image_Callback',hObject,eventdata,guidata(hObject))

Error while evaluating Menu Callback.

Any guidance appreciated.

function Image_Menu_Open_Image_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to File_Menu_Open_Image (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)

h=getImage();
handles.imageFile=h;
I=imread(h);

[m,n]=size(I);
handles.ImageAxis.XLim = [0 m];
handles.ImageAxis.YLim = [0 n];

handles.ImageAxis=imshow(I);
set(handles.info_txt,'String',strcat('File opened is: ',h));
guidata(hObject,handles);

If you mention, that you get "errorrs related to handles.ImagesAxis.XLim", please share the complete messages with us. It is easier to solve a problem than to guess, what the problem is.

Unrecognized property 'XLim' for class 'matlab.graphics.primitive.Image'.

XLim belongs to the axes. In the line:

handles.ImageAxis=imshow(I)

you store the handle of the image, not of the axes. Maybe you want to change it to:

handles.ImageAxis.XLim = [0 m];
handles.ImageAxis.YLim = [0 n];
handles.Image          = imshow(I);

Thanks Jan - that seemed to have solved the problem
