Wait for user input to select region of data from plot and save it to a variable

7 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have a list of files named sequentially (E.g. "Run1.csv", "Run2.csv", ..... ) that I am reading using "readtable" and plotting the contents using a for loop. I am generating a figure for each file in the for loop.
%% Tidy up workspace
clc; clear; close all;
%% Load raw data
ir_dir = "Path to directory 1\";
ptv_dir = "Path to directory 2\";
% Constants
num_runs = 28; % Number of files
for i=1:num_runs
% create dynamic file path
ir_fname = "Run" + num2str(i) +".dat";
ptv_fname = "Run" + num2str(i) +".csv";
ir_fullpath = ir_dir + ir_fname;
ptv_fullpath = ptv_dir + ptv_fname;
% Read data
tblIR = readtable(ir_fullpath);
tblPTV = readtable(ptv_fullpath);
% plot data
figure(i);
plot(tblIR.Time,tblIR.Data1,'--r','LineWidth',2);
hold on;
plot(tblIR.Time,tblIR.Data2,'-c','LineWidth',1.5);
plot(tblIR.Time,tblIR.Data3,'-m','LineWidth',1.5);
plot(tblPTV.Time,tblPTV.Data4,'-k','LineWidth',2);
plot(tblPTV.Time,tblPTV.Data5,'-b','LineWidth',2);
plot(tblPTV.Time,tblPTV.Data6,'-g','LineWidth',2);
hold off;
grid on;
xlabel('Time (hh:mm:ss.sss)');
ylabel('Temperature (C)');
legend('Data1','Data2','Data3','Data4','Data5','Data6','Location','southeast');
title("Run #" + num2str(i));
% Wait for user input to select data and save it to a variable (data
% brushing?? -- How to automate this?)
% After user has selected data using data brushing and data is saved,
% continue with for loop execution
clear tblIR;
clear tblPTV;
end
Here is an example of output plot that I get after each iteration of for loop:
After the plot is generated, I want the for loop to pause for user to select a region of data in the plot. Something like this:
Upon selection of the data using data brush, I want to data to be saved into a variable in the workspace and continue on with next iteration of for loop.
Is it possible to automate this data brushing for each iteration of for loop? Is there a way to invoke data brushing automatically when a figure is generated? and to automatically save the results of data brushing to a variable?

BrushData is property present on plot handle used to set and get brushed data on a plot
In order to get the brushed data and save to workspace programmatically, here is the following example
figure;
x=0:2*pi;
y=sin(x);
y1=cos(x);
plot(x,y);
hold on;
plot(x,y1);
ax = gca;
for i=1:length(ax.Children) % loops through all the plot in figure
indices = find(ax.Children(i).BrushData); % gives the indices which are brushed
% save the data into required variable
end
Inorder to set brushed data programmatically then you can use the following structure,
ax.Children(i).BrushData = [0 1 1 1 1 1 1]; % pass the indices which wants to brush as 1 and remaining as 0
