#### 15.3.4 Searching Properties

Function File: h = findobj ()
Function File: h = findobj (prop_name, prop_value, …)
Function File: h = findobj (prop_name, prop_value, "-logical_op", prop_name, prop_value)
Function File: h = findobj ("-property", prop_name)
Function File: h = findobj ("-regexp", prop_name, pattern)
Function File: h = findobj (hlist, …)
Function File: h = findobj (hlist, "flat", …)
Function File: h = findobj (hlist, "-depth", d, …)

  Find graphics object with specified property values.

  The simplest form is

      findobj (prop_name, prop_value)

  which returns the handles of all objects which have a property named prop_name that has the value prop_value. If multiple property/value pairs are specified then only objects meeting all of the conditions are returned.

  The search can be limited to a particular set of objects and their descendants, by passing a handle or set of handles hlist as the first argument.

  The depth of the object hierarchy to search can be limited with the `"-depth"` argument. An example of searching only three generations of children is:

      findobj (hlist, "-depth", 3, prop_name, prop_value)

  Specifying a depth d of 0, limits the search to the set of objects passed in hlist. 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"`.

  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 by using the `"-property"` option.

  Implementation Note: The search only includes objects with visible handles (HandleVisibility = `"on"`). See findall, to search for all objects including hidden ones.

  See also: findall, allchild, get, set.

Function File: h = findall ()
Function File: h = findall (prop_name, prop_value, …)
Function File: h = findall (prop_name, prop_value, "-logical_op", prop_name, prop_value)
Function File: h = findall ("-property", prop_name)
Function File: h = findall ("-regexp", prop_name, pattern)
Function File: h = findall (hlist, …)
Function File: h = findall (hlist, "flat", …)
Function File: h = findall (hlist, "-depth", d, …)

  Find graphics object, including hidden ones, with specified property values.

  The return value h is a list of handles to the found graphic objects.

  `findall` performs the same search as `findobj`, but it includes hidden objects (HandleVisibility = `"off"`). For full documentation, see findobj.
