How to get the XY of an imagesc rather than the rows and columns

5 views (last 30 days)
I'm having trouble thinking of a way to retrieve the X and Y of my "imagesc" rather than the rows and columns. By using the code:
[value,location] = max(xyplane(:))
[R,C] = ind2sub(size(xyplane),location)
R and C return the rows and columns of the maximum I'm looking for. However, I want the X and Y, like I have displayed in the picture below.
I have used my own linspace to create my axes at this size.

Try this:
maxValue = max(xyplane(:))
[rows, columns] = find(xyplane == maxValue);
% If you'd rather them be named x and y:
[y, x] = find(xyplane == maxValue);

You can check out ginput and datacursormode as both of them provide x,y coordintes.
