msplot.markregion - Function

1.3.3 Mark a rectangular region to flag or to investigate the data in the area.


Description

Mark a rectangular region on the plot. Each call to markflag allows one region to be drawn. Any number of successive calls can be made. This function marks and stores a list of marked regions. These regions can then be (un)flagged, or information about the marked data can be retrieved. To flag the data the (un)flagdata function must be used and to find out information about the data the locatedata function must be used.

In the case of multi-panel plots, the subplot parameter must be specified with each call. The subplot value corresponds to a row-major ordering of panels, see the subplot plot option information.

Marking the region requires two consecutive mouse clicks at the two diagonally opposite corners. A hatched rectangle will appear over the selected region. Alternative a specific region can be given to this function with the region parameter.
