MATLAB: Does MATLAB enter an infinite loop when I use the CAPTURESCREEN command on an invisible figure in MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2) on MacOS

invisiblemacMATLABscreencapturevisible

In MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2) on MacOS, I use the following code to perform a screen capture on an invisible figure:
f = figure('visible', 'off'); 
capturescreen(f)
MATLAB enters an infinite loop and becomes busy indefinitely. I have to use Ctrl+C to stop the process.
