Using the mouse to select drag scope measurement cursors

Using 2016b, I need to measure pulse timings from a standard Simulink scope. It does not seem to be possible to select and drag them using the mouse. The keyboard commands don't seem to work either.

I will answer my own question...

What had not realized is that you need to deselect the pan/zoom button on the toolbar to allow you to select a cursor. I kept selecting the different options for this function using the drop-down arrow, but actually clicking on the icon allows it to be selected or deselected. Seems obvious now!

Thank you for figuring this out. I was quite stuck. Couldn't find anything in the documentation either. I think it would be a good idea for the developers to deselect the pan-zoom when the user first selects the cursor measurement icon (Little ruler is clicked)

Came back to this same problem again. For future reference I note that to "deselect pan zoom" you may have to go to the "Tools" drop down on the scope and uncheck the offending zoom or pan selection.

Took time to understand for me also: hereby 2 pictures with selected and deselected pan. Only deslected pan will enable you to drag the cursors!
