Great tool.
Should be built into plot. Since plot navagation in matlab is a huge pain.

Hello,
I´m not able to start this m-File.
When I call "axdrag" from the command window, I get this error-message:

"Warning: Setting the "KeyPressFcn" property is not permitted while this mode is active.
>In uitools.uimodemanager.uimodemanager>localModeWarn at 59 In axdrag at 54"

I use R2009b.
Thank you for your help.
