Special characters in datacursormode

I'm trying to use datacursormode to display a data tip with \beta_1 and \beta_2 instead of x and y.
Setting
output_text = { ['\beta_1 = ' num2str(pos(1)) ], ['\beta_2 = ' num2str(pos(2)) ]}
yields a data tip with "\beta_1 = [the x coord of the cursor]" on one line and \beta_2 on the second, whereas this precise string works as desired in a title or legend or other place.
Is there some way to get the data tip to act like other graph text? Could I even get the LaTeX interpreter to work with it?
Thanks!

The screen update done by /Applications/MATLAB_R2017b.app/toolbox/matlab/scribe/+matlab/+graphics/+shape/+internal/@PointDataTip/private/createCustomStringStrategy.p using the String property of PointDataTip objects; everything about how the strings are put onto the screen appears to be in .p files.

Hi, I work for the MathWorks Technical Support team. There is no documented way to change the interpreter for the "datacursor"; For now, only standard text is supported on figure data tips. There is an existing enhancement request in place.
That being said, there are a couple undocumented workarounds you can potentially consider
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1668071/how-do-i-use-tex-latex-formatting-for-custom-data-tips-in-matlab
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30011448/how-to-properly-display-tex-strings-in-axes-datatips-matlab-hg2
Please keep in mind that since these workarounds use undocumented methods, they are not guaranteed to work in future releases of MATLAB.

Thank you. The second one worked perfectly!
You may, however, wish to update the documentation for the UpdateFcn functionality; the help page for datacursormode says that the first argument is unused, whereas it seems in practice to be the DataCursor object.
Future-proofing isn't important, as it's academic code. That's the next batch of grad students' problem!
