    //now we have all Functions in the project proj
    Function[] functions = objFinder.GetFunctions(null);
    
    FunctionsFilter ff = new FunctionFilters();
    ff.Category = Function.Enums.Category.MOTOR;
    ff.Page = p;
    
    //now we have all functions having category 'MOTOR' placed on page p
    functions = objFinder.GetFunctions(ff);
