How to delete a single element in a Matlab plot

Question

I have a simple plot of unsorted data, like:

plot(x, y, 'ko')

Now I have visualized some data that I would like remove. There is a way to do this directly on the plot, without searching the data in the matrix?

Thank you and bye,
Giacomo

Answer 1

No, the plots are only one-way visualizations of your code and you can't edit your data from the plots. You have to delete objects/lines programmatically or you can turn specific plots off (doesn't change the underlying data) with clickableLegend.
