Help me collect selected data point values

Hi,

I've a plot3() point cloud. When I hoover my mouse over an individual marker Matlab shows the x y and z values in a tool tip. I want to collect these values but have been unsuccessful. Can someone help me with this?

Read about ginput, getpts.

Thanks for your response.

I have looked at those options but they return 2d coordinates and I need it to be 3d.

With those two points, get the indices using knnsearch and extract third coordinate also.
