| Description |
Datum Cursor (DTMCURSOR) provides a graphical evaluation tool that produces a crosshair that displays its location in a figure annotation for quick inspection of data values. The user can also define x and/or y datums and measurement lines to calculate differences quickly. The difference is displayed either above or to the right of each measurement line. All text objects, except for datum labels, can be re-positioned via mouse. Changing datum location causes all measurements to update. Delta_y text font and edge color is the color of the line that you added a measurement to. Datums and measurement lines are draggable. I've tried to blend all the best of what I've learned from the submissions that inspired me. Many great features... give it a try. I hope you will find it to be "the" tool for data exploration. |

Added labels to the X and Y datums. I had a dependency on a function called "draggable" that I eliminated. Cursor and delta value text can now be re-positioned by dragging with mouse. |
| 19 Jul 2013 |
Added many new properties, all text except for datum labels can be re-positioned via mouse. SnapToNearest causes the crosshair to be constrained to the closest line value. Use set(obj,'SnapToNearest',false) to turn that feature off. |

Added Keypress commands to control SnapToNearest and crosshair visability. Made datums and measurement lines draggable. Changed the default line and edge colors to red. Changed the default line style to solid. |
