The first example from DOC FINDOBJ should do it, as long as the line created
by PSD is the only line on the current axes:
h = findobj(gca,'Type','line')
If it isn't, you'll need to specify another property that distinguishes the
PSD-created lines from the others. Take a look at the other documentation
examples for ideas of some of the properties you can use for that purpose.
