Given the following situation:
After plot a graph in Maple, can I point the cursor in a region of the graphic displayed and retrieve the coordinates (x,y) that defines the position pointed by the cursor in such way I can use those values in my program?
I do it interactively via the clipboard, i.e. I select and copy the coordinates from the display box in the top left corner of the window and then paste them into my code.
Not very elegant but quite effective! (I use Microsoft Windows.)
