I have an antenna graph that I want displayed in polar form and I have made it a UIFIgure in code view. I need the polar plot to be apart of the GUI and not a 'figure' pop up like below. Currently, this code will compile and show the accurate graph. However, when I try to convert it into a UI Figure, I can create the polar plot but I cannot use the 'polar pattern' command which I need to display the right line.

tl.dr. I need the two graphs to look the same.

P = readtable('polarplot.csv');
           x = table2array(P(:,"a"));
           y = table2array(P(:,"b"));
            hold on;
            polarpattern(x,y);
            P = polarpattern;
            hold off;

I have tried using the polarpattern command in the updateplot(app) function however, it will not compile. The UIFigure appears but the polar plot is incorrect.

 function updateplot(app)
            %load data 
              Q = readtable('polarplot.csv');
              x = table2array(Q(:,"a")); % phi
              y = table2array(Q(:,"b")); % rho
              
               plotline = polarplot(app.Pax,x,y); %this is what works currently
              
function PolarButtonPushed(app, event)
         
            
            app.Pax = polaraxes(app.UIFigure);
            app.Pax.Units = 'pixels';
            app.Pax.Position = [370 110 90 200]
            updateplot(app);
