%ELLIPSESELECT An interactive ellipse selection tool
%
%   HE = ELLIPSESELECT('init', A, B, X0, Y0, PHI, STYLE)
%   Creates the ellipse and initialzes callbacks. Returns the handle of the
%   ellipse HE.
%   Ellipse parameters:
%       A           Length of the semi-major axis
%       B           Length of the semi-minor axis
%       X0          Abscissa of the center of the ellipse
%       Y0          Ordinate of the center of the ellipse
%       PHI         Angle (in radians) between x-axis and the major axis
%       STYLE       Definition of the plotted line style
%   Usage:
%   Once created, the ellipse shape can the adjusted interactively using the mouse. 
%   The center can be moved by dragging the 'x' at the center of the
%   ellipse. The lengths of the axes can be adjusted by dragging on the red
%   and black control points on the ellipse. The ellipse can be rotated
%   through an arbitrary angle by left clicking and dragging on the
%   ellipse boundary. 
%   The ellipse parameters are saved in the ellipse handle's userdata
%   property and can be obtained using:
%   PARAMS = ELLIPSESELECT('params', HE), where PARAMS is a structure
%   with the ellipse parameters.
%   The ellipse can be deleted by right clicking on the ellipse boundary
%   and selecting 'delete' from the context-menu. Alternatively, the ellipse
%   can be deleted programmatically by using the following call to ELLIPSESELECT.
%   STATUS = ELLIPSESELECT('deletehandle',HE)
%   STATUS returns 0 if the delete operation was successful, -1 otherwise.
%  
%   Example:
%       %generate some data
%       x=randn(500,2).*repmat([0.1,0.05],500,1);
%       phi=pi/4; rotmat = [cos(phi),sin(phi);-sin(phi),cos(phi)];
%       y=rotmat*x';
%       scatter(y(1,:),y(2,:),'c.'); hold on
%       axis([-1,1,-1,1])
%       %create an ellipse
%       he = ellipseselect('init',1,1,0,0,pi/4,'r-.');
%       % modify ellipse line style
%       set(he,'LineWidth',2);
%       % get current ellipse parameters
%       params = ellipseselect('params',he);
%       % delete the ellipse
%       status = ellipseselect('deletehandle',he);

%   Known issues: overwrites userdata of figure
