thank you for your reply, your answer is correct,but I think Adam Danz's answer is I want.

[Uzi Yona]

Thanks a lot. This work very good.

[bo peng]

your answer is so great !!!

[Edward B]

That is the most concise and elegant two-liner since:

Take my wife.

Please.

[Yang Liu]

Thank you, but don't take my wife. Your codes works for me, just a quick question:

What does the 0 represent? I try to figure out with help findall, and find nothing helpful...

Thanks, and take my wife now.

[Voss]

0 is the graphics root object, which is also returned by the groot function, so you could do findall(groot,_)

Answer 2

[Adam Danz]

Just to add another approach,

Set HandleVisibility to on when you create the UIFigures. That way their handles will be visible to gcf() , close all, etc....

uifigure('HandleVisibility', 'on')

[bo peng]

your answer is so great

Yes very nice answer because when you move from guide to app it is not easy to uderstand that

[Jan Kudlacek]

In Matlab 2019b HandleVisibility is 'off' and is read only. Is there any workaround?

[Adam Danz]

@Jan Kudlacek, you can use Ameer Hamza's solution below.

[Yang Liu]

I don't konw why but this doesn't work for me... weird...

If you want to keep some figures you can close a subset of them if you keep the figure-handles in an array. If you modify your creation to something like this for all call to uifigure:

if ~exist('uifig')
  uifig = uifigure;       
else
  uifig(end+1) = uifigure;
end 

if ~exist('uifig')
  uifig = uifigure;       
else
  uifig(end+1) = uifigure;
end 
% ...etc

% then you can close some suitable set of them, or all of them
% closing all:
close([uifig]),clear uifig
% closing some:
close([uifig([1 3])]),uifig([1 3]) = [];
