I used matlab2021b to design a GUI for loading pictures, but when I select a local file, the GUI will be hidden to the next level of the desktop, why is this?

after the line that you open a file selector (uigetimagefile for example), use this:
figure(FIGURE);
it will bring up your GUI on top again. use your gui figure name instead of FIGURE. for example if you are using appdesigner use:
figure(app.UIFigure);

I find that if I am drawing other figures from within a GUI that the GUI starts moving around the screen.
Especially if you are testing and you just throw up a figure and plot something
to fix this -- I do something along the lines of
figure(app.UIFigure); movegui(app.UIFigure, 'west');
