MATLAB: Am I unable to open or close the Property Inspector during a PAUSE statement in MATLAB

MATLAB

The Property Inspector does not open or close when a PAUSE command has been executed. For example, please perform the following in order to reproduce the issue:
line
pause
MATLAB should be paused awaiting a key input. In the figure, select the 'Edit Plot' tool, right click an object, and open the 'Property Editor'. Subsequently, if I click on the 'Inspector…' button, the property inspector will not open until I press a key to exit the pause mode.
