Copying a nonvisible figure causes images to have weird coloring?

So, I have this code that showed the figure resultsf (which has 'visible' set to 'off'). I copy it because I do not wish for it to be deleted when the user closes the figure window.
global resultsf;
f = figure('Name', 'Results');
copyobj(allchild(resultsf), f);
set(f, 'visible', 'on');
However, the problem is that when I display resultsf by itself (by setting 'visible' to 'on'), the images (grayscale) in the figure display perfectly. But, when I use the above code, the images will have have a coloring to them.

colormap is per-figure, and is not a property of any child object of the figure. When you create the Results figure, it is given the default colormap, and unless you specifically change that, any mapped child object will use that default colormap.
You should
set(f, 'Colormap', get(resultsf, 'Colormap'))
