function [par,varargout] = blockpanelget(p,varargin)
%BLOCKPANELGET Get parameters from GUI
%   Usage: [par,...] = blockpanelget(p,spar,...)
%
%   Input parameters:
%         p    : JAVA object
%         spar : String. Name of the parameter.
%
%   Output parameters:
%         par  : Single value or vector of parameters.
%
%   par = BLOCKPANELGET(p,'spar') gets a current value of the parameter
%   'spar' from the GUI specified in p. 
%   par = BLOCKPANELGET(p,'spar1','spar2','spar3') gets current values
%   of the parameters 'spar1', 'spar2' and 'spar3' from the GUI and
%   stores them in a vector p.
%   [par1,par2,par3] = BLOCKPANELGET(p,'spar1','spar2','spar3') gets 
%   current values of the parameters 'spar1', 'spar2' and 'spar3' 
%   from the GUI and stores them in the separate variables par1,par2
%   and par3.
