You could set() the entire uipanel to have Visible 'off'

But if you want the panel to be still visible, then

set(findall(PanelHandle, '-property', 'enable'), 'enable', 'off')

Sébastien - GUIs cannot be run by double-clicking on the figure (.fig) file. They are only meant to be run from the GUIDE GUI editor, the m-file editor, or by calling the GUI m-file name from the Command Window.

From http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/creating_guis/files-generated-by-guide.html, a FIG-file, with extension .fig, contains a complete description of the UI layout and each UI component, such as push buttons, axes, panels, menus, and so on. The FIG-file is a binary file and you cannot modify it except by changing the layout in GUIDE. FIG-files are specializations of MAT-files.

Launching the GUI by double-clicking on the fig file just shows you the layout of the GUI but does not have any of the functionality.

I think you can pass in an array of handles to set()

% Get all the handles to everything we want to set in a single array.
handleArray = [handles.editText, handles.pushbutton, handles.listbox];
% Set them all disabled.
set(handlesArray, 'Enable', 'off');
