Permanently disable datacursor mode

I would like to disable the datacursormode from a figure which I am picking on using ginput. I have tried several ways to disable the datacursor as described here https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/matlab.graphics.shape.internal.datacursormanager.html#d120e218623, but this has been ineffective.

Inside a while loop I am calling ginput once per iteration, and plotting the selected point on the figure. However, even after setting datacursormode off, inbetween calls to ginput the data cursor will automatically begin highlighting points for data tips. This is preventing my ginput picker from working effectively. Any advise would be helpful.

Thanks

minimum working example using matlab 2018b or later.

fig = figure(998); clf
dcm = datacursormode(fig);
dcm.Enable = 'off';
while 1
    [x,y,btn] = ginput(1)
    if isempty(btn)
        break
    end
    plot(x,y,'rx')
    drawanow
end
