SUMMARY
Matlab versions older than 2025a don't render correctly, it displays either a large white plane with "ready" in the bottom left, or a white plane smaller than the actual window with the same "ready" text. Interaction seemingly is still possible with the invisible UI.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start matlab version older than 2025a

OBSERVED RESULT
It displays either a large white plane with "ready" in the bottom left, or a white plane smaller than the actual window with the same "ready" text. Interaction seemingly is still possible with the invisible UI.

EXPECTED RESULT
Displaying normally
