GETUNDOC('OBJECT') or GETUNDOC(H) returns a structure of undocumented properties (names & values) for the object having handle H or identified by the string 'OBJECT'.
GETUNDOC(H,true) returns the undocumented properties of H, while skipping the following standard undocumented properties: ALimInclude, ApplicationData, Behavior, CLimInclude, HelpTopicKey, IncludeRenderer, PixelBounds, Serializable, XLimInclude, YLimInclude, ZLimInclude
For example, GETUNDOC('axes') or GETUNDOC(gca) returns undocumented property names and values for the axes object.
