Sometimes you need to make a comment to a figure for later reference but don't want to show it on the plotting area.

These functions allow you to write and extract comments to/from the figure's UserData which is not displayed.

This way the figure's .fig file becomes a self-contained document containing the data, annotations and visualizations.
