hi there! here is my question. I am using text command to place some text to specific points [x1,y1]=ginput(1); text(x1,y1,'P'); Now, is it possible to draw an arrow from that point (named P) down to x1 ? Can you please tell me how to do that ? Thanks. PS i don't want to make it manually, it has to be done automatically.

You can use the annotation function as suggested by Matt. As pointed out, the coordinates need to be normalized. There's a nice utility function on the FEX that does that:

在 MATLAB Online 中打开

As an alternative, here is a way to do it using the ANNOTATION function. Run the code and click where you would like the text to appear (somewhere in the upper middle), then click again near the parabola.

figure('units','norm')
x = -2:.1:2;
axes('units','norm')
plot(x,x.^2);  % Plot a parabola
% The first point will have text, second the arrowhead...
[x1,y1] = ginput(2); % Get two points from user.
A = annotation('textarrow','units','norm','string','Parabola');
% Next we need to transform the GINPUT values to figure units.
XL = get(gca,{'xlim','ylim','pos'});
[XL,YL,P] = deal(XL{:});
Ax = P(3)*(x1-XL(1))/diff(XL)+P(1);
Ay = P(4)*(y1-YL(1))/diff(YL)+P(2);
set(A,'x',Ax,'y',Ay)  % Set the arrow in the correct position.

Good idea Sean de, I will try to get it done in the next day or two.

@Kelly: Right on, I'll look for yours too!

Thanks for your reply. But, i have to deal with seismic waves, and zoom in is more than necessery. If you try to zoom in with your script, the function zooms in but the arrow stays where it was before .. i kinda want the arrow to be in the exact same position no matter what.. like if you od it manually and pin it to axes :( i want that but with some code and not manually. Is that possible ? Thanks.
