Matplotlib Series Part#14 - Pick Event (To make your Plots Interactive)

In this Matplotlib Tutorial, we will be discussing the "Pick Event". This event can be used to actually interact with your Matplotlib Window, such as selecting a certain point or dragging an object, etc.

You are a lifesaver. Thank you for these videos!
I’m having to make a graph software where we use dijkstras algorithm to calculate the distance from two points you select with a left click for the starting point and a right click for the ending point.
This has given me an actual base to work from and I appreciate it so much. You have 100% earned this new subscriber and deserve many more.
Plus you also actually explain what the things do, and show mistakes which helps a ton

Your examples with explanations were very helpful. Thank you!

Would the same technique apply if you want to allow the user to select which series from a csv file to show? When a new series is displayed, the legend/scaling should automatically update as well.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen any off-the-shelf solutions for this.. perhaps csv-plot and plotjuggler being the closest.
BTW, Javascript seems to have many charting libraries (ggplot, Observable, D3, plotly.js etc), but python has gnuplot-py, matplotlib.

is there a way to extract these figures to html file ? i know you can do it with plotly but how about matplotlib
