You can to do it, but in a (very) limited way : if your app has objects named like 'win01', 'win02', 'block01', 'block02' you can use the FIND_nn built-ins inside a numeric LOOP; if not, you will need to use a LOT of built-in functions : for example, get_application_property gives the first block, get_view_property give the name of the canvas ' windows, and so on. AFAIK, there is no direct and easy way to do it.
