Problem using copyobj

I have created a GUI with 2 axes. The code I generated plots data onto both axes however what I want to do is export these 2 axes onto a new figure window. Here is the following code I am using:
h1 = handles.inplane_graph;
h2 = handles.outofplane_graph;
copyobj(h1,figure(1));
copyobj(h2,figure(2));
Both graphs are copied perfectly into new figure windows, however the position of the graphs are not centered and the graphs themselves are small (the same size as they appear in the GUI). I want the graphs to be standard size and centered. Can someone please help?

copyobj() copies everything, including the Position information. You can set() the Position after the copy.

get() the 'Units' in both cases: if you are using different Units then the positions would be very different.
You can set the axes position in normalized units:
nh1 = copyobj(h1,figure(1));
nh2 = copyobj(h2,figure(2));
set([nh1,nh2], 'Units', 'normalized', 'Position', [.2 .2 .6 .6]);
The .2 and .6 were chosen arbitrary to leave a margin of 1/10 of the figure area on all sides of the graph.
