Note that not all mapped objects have the ZData property (for example text objects).

zdatam(h) activates the Specify Zdata dialog box for the objects specified by the handle h.

zdatam(str) activates the Specify Zdata dialog box for the objects identified by str, where str is any of the character vectors recognized by handlem.

Controls

Select Object Dialog Box

The scroll box is used to select the desired objects from the list of mapped objects. Pushing the Select all button highlights all objects in the scroll box for selection. Pushing the OK button activates another Specify Zdata dialog box. Pushing the Cancel button aborts the operation without changing any properties of the selected objects.

Specify ZData Dialog Box

The Zdata Variable edit box is used to specify the name of the ZData variable. Pressing the List button produces a list of all current workspace variables, from which the ZData variable can be selected. A scalar value or a valid MATLAB® expression can also be entered. Pressing the Apply button changes the ZData property of all selected objected to the new values. Pressing the Cancel button closes the Specify ZData dialog box without changing the ZData property of the selected objects.
