I have a MATLAB program that creates several dozen figures. On a Mac, the Windows item in the MATLAB menu brings up a list of windows. I've given each figure a meaningful name, so it's easy to click on one to raise it. Under Linux, the desktop manager creates a list of windows, but it's too crowded to show names. Is there a convenient way to select a figure window by name?

Thanks! My version:

function choose

% choose - allow user to raise a figure

h = findobj('Type','figure');

for i=1:numel(h), name{i}=h(i).Name; end

[name,ix]=sort(name); h=h(ix);

while true

for i=1:numel(h), fprintf('%3d %s\n',h(i).Number,h(i).Name); end

n=input('number of figure to raise: ')

for i=1:numel(h)

if h(i).Number == n, figure(n); return; end

end

fprintf('try again\n');

end

Seems like something the OS should provide, though

If using a code solution is fine, you can use this:

% Create figures with names
f1=figure;
f1.Name = 'foo';
f2=figure;
f2.Name = 'bar';
%%
% Now give focus to the figure with a specific name
figure(findobj('Name','foo'))
