How can I change the value of a text field based on plot selection in MATLAB APP Designer?

I have multiple tests with similar data I am plotting against one another.

Is it possible for me to get MATLAB APP Designer to populate a text field with test details based on the plot I click on or hover my mouse over?

I am using RMATLAB 2021b

Christian,

Please see the app attached.

You could create a callback function to the Axes by right clicking >Callbacks>Add UIAxesButtonDown callback.

In the example below (and app attached), I took the string from the axes title and place it in the edit field and label.

function UIAxesButtonDown(app, event)
        app.EditField.Value = app.UIAxes.Title.String; % For edit field
        app.Label.Text = app.UIAxes.Title.String; %For label
end
