Use mpl events -- they work across user interface toolkits and handle stuff like which axes did you click in and what are the data coordinates def onclick(event): print 'axes', event.inaxes if event.inaxes is None: return print 'canvas', event.x, event.y print 'data', event.xdata, event.ydata cid = fig.canvas.mpl_connect('button_press_event', onclick) See matplotlib.backend_bases.Event and derived classes for details on available attributes. See matplotlib.backend_bases.FigureCanvasBase.mpl_connect for details on valid signals, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
