Font cmss10 is not supported in Matlab R2011b

[Claudio]

Hi,

In version 2010b (in Windows XP) I used to use this definition for my texts and labels:
xlabel('\textsf{Speed [m/s]}', 'interpreter','latex');

Since the installation of 2011b I get the following warning:
"Warning: Font cmss10 is not supported"

The font still appears as sans serif, but it's not cmss10.

I found that I can use the Tex interpreter:
xlabel('\fontname{Calibri}Speed [m/s]', 'interpreter','tex');
But in this case the following (which I used in 2010b) does not work:
xlabel('\textsf{$$\sqrt{\hbox {Speed [m/s]}}$$}', 'interpreter','tex');

Any ideas?

Update:
It turns out that this "Font cmss10 is not supported" error is a Matlab bug. They are working to fix this!

How come I still have this warning with 2012b if they were working on it?

Still the same in 2015b (!)
If they really need 4 years to fix a bug, they should rather sell potatoes.
No, I don't think it's a bug, but what may cause this error message?

Still a bug in 2016b.
You guys should submit this bug to the Mathworks as well, maybe they will do something about it...

Still a bug in 2019a !
