Reference Table Column Descriptions

Reference tables for Stateflow API properties and methods have the following columns:

Name -- The name for the property or method. Each property or method has a name that you use in dot notation along with a Stateflow object to set or obtain the property's value or call the method.
Type -- A data type for the property. Some types are other Stateflow API objects, such as the Machine property, which is the Machine object that contains this object.
Access -- An access type for the property. Properties that are listed as RW (read/write) can be read and changed. For example, the Name and Description properties of particular objects are RW. However, some properties are RO (read-only) because they are set by MATLAB itself.
Description -- A description for the property or method. For some properties, the equivalent GUI operations for setting it in Stateflow are also given.
Objects -- The types of objects that have this property or method. The object types are listed by a single letter corresponding to the beginning character of each object type (except for the Target object), which are as follows: Root (R), Machine (M), Chart (C), State (S), Box (B), Function (F), Truth Table (TT), Note (N), Transition (T), Junction (J), Event (E), Data (D), Target (X), Editor (ED), and Clipboard (CB).
