Datacursormode

Dear friends,

I have created many sub axes(grids) in the figure window.

When i set the datacursormode on, instead of showing the value of the graph where I point, it shows the position of the sub axes which is under the plotted graph.

What best I can do to over come this problem.

Please suggest me. Thanks in advance.

What is "sub axes (grids)"? Do you mean subplot? Or did you actually plot the grid lines? I don't see problem in this example.

f=figure(1);
s1=subplot(2,1,1);
plot(1:10);grid on;
s2=subplot(2,1,2);
plot(magic(3));grid on;
datacursormode on;

It's not like this, In a figure window there is only one figure. I have created small grids in the figure window manually. Instead of showing position of the graph, datacursor is showing the position of the small grids which i had created.

That is the problem. MATLAB treat your "graph" and the grid lines that you drawn the same as the curves in the figure. Why do you need to drawn the grid lines? The grid on is not good enough? If that is the case, you may just have to move your cursor very carefully to point to the data points on your "graph", not on the grid lines.
