Why does the RESET function fail to reset the 'WindowStyle' property of figures in MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2)?

I use the following code to create a plot:

plot(1:10);

set(gcf, 'WindowStyle', 'docked');

I then use the following code to reset the figure properties:

reset(gcf);

However, the 'WindowStyle' property is not reset to 'normal'. In MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1) and prior versions, the RESET function can reset the 'WindowStyle' property of figures.

This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

Between MATLAB 7.0.1 (R14SP1) and 7.0.4 (R14SP2), the behavior of the RESET function changed. In MATLAB 7.0.4 R14SP2, the RESET function does not reset the 'WindowStyle' property of figures. This is documented in the RESET function reference page. To view this documentation, type the command:
