select complex numbers from cell array based on the real part

Hi all,
I have a 7D cell array with complex numbers.
I want to keep the complex number with the highest real part, of all the values of the 3rd parameter (1:15).
For example in this case i want only the val(:,:,14,1,1,1,1) which has the highest real part.
I tried to do it using the following command
maxVal = max(cell2mat(my_array),[],3);
However, it keeps the complex number with higher imaginary part. In this case
val(:,:,15,1,1,1,1)
Any idea of how can i do this?
Thank you

Well, if you want the max() of the real part, then you'll have to limit to only looking at the real part -- max() for complex returns max(abs())
tmp=squeeze(cell2mat(my_array));
[maxRealVal,imxR] = max(real(tmp));
maxVal=tmp(imxR);

With your code, yes...with mine, no. Attach some readable data so don't have to make it up (don't use images, select/past text instead).
Well, what the ... poke, poke, ...
val=complex([0.21,0.28,0.34,745.4,34.3],[1460.9,1460.9,1460.9,1444.3,1691.9]); % approx subset sample data
% find return value with maximum real part...
[vMxR,iMxR]=max(real(val)); % return location
% display result
>> val(iMxR)
ans =
7.4540e+02 + 1.4443e+03i
>> imag(val(iMxR))
ans =
1.4443e+03
>>
by contrast,
>> abs(val)
ans =
1.0e+03 *
1.4609 1.4609 1.4609 1.6253 1.6922
>> [~,imx]=max(abs(val))
imx =
5
>> [~,imx]=max((val))
imx =
5
>>
which shows since the real part is stlll small(ish) in comparison, the larger imaginary component dominates in the abs() value which is what max() returns for complex variable.
