Unfortunately it doesn't work perfectly yet, see:
https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/244
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/4582
But the following code can be used as a workaround, using an IPython widget
to display the event data:
```
%pylab notebook
import ipywidgets as widgets
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(np.random.rand(10))
w = widgets.HTML()
def onclick(event):
w.value = 'button=%d, x=%d, y=%d, xdata=%f, ydata=%f'%(
event.button, event.x, event.y, event.xdata, event.ydata)
cid = fig.canvas.mpl_connect('button_press_event', onclick)
display(w)
```
Note, however, that at least for me, the interactive figures in the
notebook are getting auto-closed for reasons I don't understand:
