Why can I not SAVE a figure with 4 or more subplots?

2 views (last 30 days)
Hello,
I recently ran into a bug in Matlab that when I try to save a figure containing 4 or more subplots I am unable to save the figure in any format (fig, png, jpeg, pdf, eps, etc).
I tried this using the saveas function, export_fig function, Export Setup, and directly clicking "Save As" from the File drop down menu in the figure.
The following error appears either in the command workspace or as a box from the Figure GUI: "Index exceeds matrix dimensions."
What dimensions? Everything plots correctly and there is no issue until I want to save the figure. No one else seems to ask this question and I am wondering if my personal Matlab is just acting buggy.
This error does not appear when I have 3 or less subplots. I have been able to successfully save those figures.
I am running Matlab 2013b on Windows 7 Professional. I am using a version provided by my university. I recently reactivated the license.
Please tell me if I need to give any additional information.

I tried reproducing and also searched for known issues - both without success. Can you submit a web request for Technical Support providing your steps?
