How can I access the x, y, z coordinate values in the legend "box" for a scatter3( ) function call?

Suppose there is a corresponding "intensity" scalar, An, for each xn, yn, zn triplet in a scatter3(X,Y, Z) call, where X, Y and Z are vectors with elements xn, yn, zn (n = 1, 2, ..., N) respectively. I would like to cursor access An for each point in the scatter and add it to the [xn yn zn] legend "box" as [xn yn zn An].

Are you saying that the legend box would start out empty, and then as you clicked around the plot, it would add the coordinates you clicked at (and corresponding intensity) to the legend ?

Wouldn't it make more sense to use colorbar() ?

Walter - I was able to accomplish my objective of customizing the datatip label to include addtional parameters using the s.DataTipTemplate.DataTipRows statement. See "Create Custom Data Tips." Thank you for your interest, Norman Owsley

Hmmm, that doesn't sound like the information would be added to the legend box?

@Walter Roberson: I believe by "legend box", @Norman means "data tip".
