They should all be in the Graphics Object Properties chapter of the
manual.

If you want to check whether by chance a property exists that is not
documented, have a look at the Graphics Objects chapter in the manual
and try to play with get().  If you discover something missing in the
manual, you can signal it to the Octave bugs list
<address@hidden>.

For example:

octave> plot(1:2)
octave> octave> fieldnames(get(get(get(gcf).children).children))
ans =

{
  [1,1] = tag
  [2,1] = type
  [3,1] = parent
  [4,1] = children
  [5,1] = __modified__
  [6,1] = xdata
  [7,1] = ydata
  [8,1] = zdata
  [9,1] = ldata
  [10,1] = udata
  [11,1] = xldata
  [12,1] = xudata
  [13,1] = color
  [14,1] = linestyle
  [15,1] = linewidth
  [16,1] = marker
  [17,1] = markeredgecolor
  [18,1] = markerfacecolor
  [19,1] = markersize
  [20,1] = keylabel
  [21,1] = interpreter
}
