getnodesbyid (biograph) - Get handles to nodes

Syntax

NodesHandles = getnodesbyid(BGobj,NodeIDs)

Arguments

Description

NodesHandles = getnodesbyid(BGobj,NodeIDs) gets the handles for the specified nodes (NodeIDs) in a biograph object.

Example

1. Create a biograph object.

   species = {'Homosapiens','Pan','Gorilla','Pongo','Baboon',...
              'Macaca','Gibbon'};
   cm = magic(7)>25 & 1-eye(7);
   bg = biograph(cm, species)
   

2. Find the handles to members of the Cercopithecidae family and members of the Hominidae family.

   Cercopithecidae = {'Macaca','Baboon'};
   Hominidae = {'Homosapiens','Pan','Gorilla','Pongo'};
   CercopithecidaeNodes = getnodesbyid(bg,Cercopithecidae);
   HominidaeNodes = getnodesbyid(bg,Hominidae);

3. Color the families differently and draw a graph.
