how can i keep the plot Interaction options permanently visible in the axes toolbar?

Hi, Re: Matlab 2018b figure, it seems the zoom icons (in the interaction options) are now in the axes toolbar (compared to figure toolbar in previous versions). Is it possible to have them visible permanently in the figure/plot rather than appearing and disappearing as the mouse hoovers on a plot? cheers AL

I'm also interested if this ever is addressed... I use the zoom tool quite often, and in the case of some very large plots I'm not even able to use the toolbars (clicking on them will not expand the toolbar menu, and hovering also does nothing...)

Very disappointed in this plotting "upgrade"...

Actually this has been discussed in the post:

They just "upgrad" the toolbar behaviour.

They provided potential solution, but that solution is not good and things continue to break.

Your link is gone... so I guess, no solution

The outburst in that thread lol. No wonder it got deleted. But I saw some say they bought back the interaction buttons from 2020 versions.
