Subject: uicontrol displaying outside of its parent panel

I have created a scrolling panel via a parent and child
panel. The child panel is larger than the parent, and a
scroll bar controls the child panel's position within the
parent. I then added several uicontrol objects to the child
panel.

I understood from other posts that the child panel will be
limited by the parent panel. However, when the child panel's
uicontrols are scrolled outside of the parent window's
range, they are still displayed - when I want them to be hidden.

Any help? Thanks!

Daniel

It appears you might have to manage that manually (or hope someone
has a FEX contribution that does it for you.) I see that the
Clipping property of Uipanel is documented as NOT affecting
child uicontrols.
