Hello Teemu,
The 'Type' of an edit box is actually 'uicontrol', just like all other UI Controls (push buttons, pop-up menus, etc). However, you can specify the 'Style' property when calling findobj to get only edit boxes:
figure
uicontrol('Style','pushbutton')
uicontrol('Style','edit')
hEditBoxes = findobj('Type','uicontrol','Style','edit');
Note that if you use findobj a lot in your code, it can slow things down. If at all possible, save the handle from when you create the edit box (or extract it from the handles structure if the GUI is made in GUIDE) and pass it as an input argument to the function that needs access to the edit box.
I hope that this has helped!
