How to delete a single point on a Matlab figure? preferably by GUI

Question

Consider the following plot:

My data points are too dense, and I would like to hide or delete some of them points to make the chart clearer. How can I do this without without recomputing the data and re-plotting the figure (which is time-consuming)?

Answer 1

The simplest way:

1. Click button "Brush/Select Data"
2. Select Points
3. Right Click mouse
4. Choose "Remove"

In this way, the line continuity is retained and no coding is needed.
