Hello darkside,
the below example seems to do the job.
The problem with x, y = event.xdata, event.ydata could be due to a
local-global-variable issue (solution: define x, y with keyword global,
i.e. "global x, y" in your function 'click' [ -> they become global
variables] to change their values in this function and use them in the main
program, too).
best regards,
Matthias

import pylab
from matplotlib.widgets import Cursor
datax=[]
datay =[]
def click(event):
if event.button == 1:
if event.inaxes:
print 'data coords: ', event.xdata, event.ydata
datax.append(event.xdata)
datay.append(event.ydata)
# disconnect the connection with id 'cid' after the first run of
# this part
pylab.disconnect(cid)
if event.button == 3:
# only possible before the first run of the upper
# part ' if event.button == 1'
pylab.close()
return datax,datay
fig = pylab.figure(figsize=(8,6))
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.plot(pylab.arange(10))
cursor = Cursor(ax, useblit=False, color='red', linewidth=2)
cursor.horizOn = False
# connection with id 'cid'
cid = pylab.connect('button_press_event', click)
pylab.show()
print 'los arrays de data son: ', datax,datay
