MATLAB: Paste into excel from matlab figure

activexclipboardexcelmatlab figurepaste-special

I am encountering a problem when I try to paste-special from the clipboard (after copying using {print (fig,'-dmeta')}) into Excel. "invalid simulink identifier" is the error I recieve when I use {activeX} syntax in my GUI. Does any one know what might causing that error or how to fix it? P.S. – it works on a different computer that has Matlab R2015a and windows 10, while it fails on a computer with R2013a…

You forgot to show your ActiveX code where you try to paste the clipboard into Excel.
To copy the current figure into the clipboard, use
print('-clipboard', '-dmeta');
which is not what you did.
