getp not defined?

[mdhe1248]

I was trying to get properties from a plot/pyobject using getp. But this function is not defined.
How can I get properties from a plot object?

I tried,

getp(gca()) #setp(gca()) works.
getproperty(gca(), :xlabel)

Both does not work.

Oh, it works with plt.getp:

plt.getp(gca(), "xlabel")
