function tbfillblanks(ut,sep,toolbar)
% fill toolbar across width of figure by
% right justifying all toolbar buttons to the right of "sep"
%  Done by filling with "blank" uipushtools that are disabled
% Inputs:
%   ut - handle of uitoolbar
%   sep - handle to uitoggle/pushtool in ut that is the rightmost
%         item in the left group of toolbar tools
%   toolbar - 1x1 structure containing handles of visible toolbar tools,
%     in order from left to right, in its fields
%  NOTE:  This feature has been disabled until further notice.
%   In case the functionality is ever desired in the future,
%   this function and calls to it from the SPTool clients
%   are being left in place.  Simply set the BLANKS_FLAG
%   parameter in this function to 1.
