The ‘find_system’ function in the Programmatic Model Editing enables to search for blocks, subsystems and signals by name. Similarly, the ‘find’ function in the Stateflow Programmatic Interface can be used to achieve the same with charts and transitions. Here are the relevant documentation links.

An example is provided in the attached zip file. The code in the ‘script.m’ file searches the ‘example.slx’ Simulink model for the entities whose names contain the string ‘BL55’ and highlights them. The ‘hilite_system’ and ‘highlight’ functions are used to perform highlighting actions. You can learn more about them in the following documentation pages.
- hilite_system - https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022a/simulink/slref/hilite_system.html
- highlight - https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022a/stateflow/api/stateflow.state.highlight.html
On executing the script, the corresponding Simulink entities get highlighted as shown below.
Note that any interactions with the Stateflow chart will disable the highlighting. As a workaround you can navigate inside the Stateflow chart and highlight one chart/transition at a time, after finding them.
I believe this will assist you!
