Error using hgexport

Thanks to detail the error message, but it would equally useful to also show the code that generated the error ...

@Hoki, I wish the error is too long, but this is what I got. Any simple code yields this error. Probably this has nothing to do with the code but some corrupted or wrong directory for the print function.

Too many input argumentssignals that there is definitely something wrong with the code. Are you able to reproduce this error with a complete sample set of data and instructions ? If yes then please detail it in your question.

@Hoki I’m using the plot window. No code for using print. File>Save as

After using which print, it seems there is a user-defined function whose name is print in this folder
C:UsersXXXXDocumentsMATLABprint.m
Matlab is probably trying to call this function instead of the one which is defined in here
C:Program FilesMATLABR2016atoolboxmatlabgraphicsprint.m
This is really awkward. Matlab should alter users when they name functions with already built-in functions. After renaming the user-defined function, Matlab successfully saved the figure as png.
