Matlab GUI zoom in/out

Hey all,
Plot some data, go ahead, do it. You'll see that in the toolbar that there is a zoom "in" and zoom "out". Both yeild the curser to do two different things. I'm trying to program this function into a gui I'm making with my own zoom in and zoom out buttons. The zoom in works with the "zoom" function within the callback function, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make the too do the opposite. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Are you using GUIDE?
If so, go to Tools -> Toolbar Editor and add the zoom in and zoom out buttons. There's no reason to reinvent the wheel.
As for doing it yourself, look at the doc for zoom() to see all of the things you can do. It's not as simple as just turning on zoom.

set(h,'toolbar','figure');
set(h,'menubar','figure');

That is totally okay and encouraged!
It just means that you need to do a little bit more. Thus when you add the uitoggletool you have to specify how you want the zoom object to exist. I am too busy right now to make you an example but there is probably one out there.
