number of figure windows that are currently open?

In a script can I get the number of figure windows that are currently open?

Why?: as I re-run the script over and over to generate another figure, I'd like to position each new figure incrementally to the right

Answer 1

[Bora Eryilmaz]

f1 = figure;
f2 = figure;
F = findobj('Type', 'figure')

F = 
  2×1 Figure array:

  Figure    (2)
  Figure    (1)

n = numel(F)

n = 2

Answer 2

[Daniel Vieira]

I do something like this:

for k=1:K

% my code here

figure;

% my plot here

fig=gcf; % get figure handle

fig.Position=[50+10*k 50+10*k fig.Position(3:4)]; % puts 1st image in pixel [50 50], second in [60 60], etc

end
