Hi,
I work with a GUI includes axes ( matlab2016a ),
I already activated the datacursor in gui side (from toolbar),
I can see coordinates when I click to graph,
But I want to get coordinates of mouse click, I mean reading the values, x and y,
I try with cp = get(gca,'CurrentPoint');
Does not work.
Can anyone help?
Regards.

What aspect of get( gca, 'CurrentPoint' ) 'doesn't work'?

You can use one of these commands to read the data on mouse click.
[x, y] = getpts(fig)
or
[x, y] = getpts(ax)

You can use 'enter' after the selection of required number of data points.

Thanks, I get it.
Is it possible using 'enter' by commands? I mean via code?
