Hello,
So I've been using ginput to select points on a plot
My plot consists of time(x) and velocity(y).
Below is my user-selected points.
[Userx,Usery] = ginput(1);
However, I noticed it doesn't actually select points from the voltage vs. time graph and instead just a point in the figure screen.
How can I get the nearest data point of the actual plot?
I've found one solution is to use this user created script file:

Can anyone help me, what is the problem of this error - Undefined function or variable 'pdist2'. . Do i want to make the 'pdis2' function ?

Short example
x = linspace(0,2,20)'; % generate some data
y = sin(x);
plot(x,y,'.-b')
xy = ginput(1); % get point
[~,ix] = min(pdist2([x y],xy)); % find closest point
hold on
plot(x(ix),y(ix),'or') % display closest point
hold off

pdist2() comes from Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox.

Use data cursor, set "SnapToDataVertex" to be "on" and then get the position. See example in
doc datacursormode

Is there a way to do this using ginput, at least where I can see the x-line and y-line of the crosshair which chooses the point?
