getappdata - Value of application-defined data

Syntax

value = getappdata(h,'name')
values = getappdata(h)

Description

value = getappdata(h,'name') gets the value of the application-defined data with the name specified by name, in the object with handle h. If the application-defined data does not exist, the MATLAB software returns an empty matrix in value.

values = getappdata(h) returns all application-defined data for the object with handle h.

Tips

Application data is data that is meaningful to or defined by your application which you attach to a figure or any GUI component (other than ActiveX controls) through its AppData property. Only Handle Graphics MATLAB objects use this property.
