Hi Michael,

That was going to be my fallback method.  I was going to say that the 
main challenge is that there are some automatically created handles that 
I would have to detect and remove (for axes: title, xlabel, ylabel, 
zlabel), but I guess I could just modify them in place.  I'll think more 
about it and you may see something tonight or tomorrow.

Is there a list somewhere of the child objects that are stored in 
properties other than "children" (ones like title, [xyz]label)?

Have a good day,

Bill
