Find object with specified property values. The simplest form is

          findobj (prop_name, prop_Value)
     

which returns all of the handles to the objects with the name prop_name and the name prop_Value. The search can be limited to a particular object or set of objects and their descendants by passing a handle or set of handles h as the first argument to findobj.

The depth of hierarchy of objects to which to search to can be limited with the '-depth' argument. To limit the number depth of the hierarchy to search to d generations of children, and example is

          findobj (h, '-depth', d, prop_Name, prop_Value)
     

Specifying a depth d of 0, limits the search to the set of object passed in h. A depth d of 0 is equivalent to the '-flat' argument.

A specified logical operator may be applied to the pairs of prop_Name and prop_Value. The supported logical operators are '-and', '-or', '-xor', '-not'.

The objects may also be matched by comparing a regular expression to the property values, where property values that match regexp (prop_Value, pattern) are returned. Finally, objects may be matched by property name only, using the '-property' option.

— Function File: h = findall (h, ...)
— Function File: h = findall (h, "-depth", d, ...)

Find object with specified property values including hidden handles.

This function performs the same function as findobj, but it includes hidden objects in its search. For full documentation, see findobj.
