Editing an existing graph

Yes my great man, you certainly did it. Thanks a zillion!

Have a very, very pleasant day!

Thanks smercurio…, for intervening on the coding style side, but he did solve my problem.

[Rashid-Malik]

Another kudos for you, my mentor!

Based on your description of (3) I don't see why you can't simply use a cursor for this. That's what they were designed to do. In fact, you don't need to do any of the code that Cory showed. All you need to do is this:

Smercurio, your solution moves the cursor to the location the same way my VI did.

However, you did nothing to check if it was near a maximum.

[smercurio_fc]

The maximum of what? The user didn't specify any "maximum" restriction. What was requested was to select the "vertex" (i.e., data point) closest to the click, and if clicking someplace else, move to the "vertex" that's closest to that. What does maximum have to do with this?

Look up the word vertex in the dictionary. The vertex, by definition, means the highest point of something, ie the maximum

I have to disagree here.  If you look at the definition, you'll also see that "node" is a definition and is the common meaning if you are dealing with any type of geometrical or mathematical context.  If the original poster wanted the maximum, the he would have said either "maximum" or "peak".

Kudos to you smercurio…! Now that is ,indeed, a more elegant solution. Loads of thanks to you, my guru.

Have a very pleasant day.

[Rashid-Malik]

Yes Cory! That definition does ,indeed, fits my needs.
