Description

The Graphics Object Name component inserts the name of a Handle Graphics object as text into the report.

You can use this component to create a section title based on the current figure. First, make sure that this component is the first subcomponent of a Chapter/Subsection component. Then select the Get title from first subcomponent option in the Chapter/Subsection component.
