[BioC] cursor position on image

[Peter Hietz]

Hi,

I am using the EBImage package for image display and analysis and want 
to read the cursor (mouse) position on the image. The R-function 
"locator()" would be ideal, but this appears to work only on plots, not 
images.

> a <- Image((0:(w^2))/w^2, c(w,w))
> if ( interactive() ) display(a)
> locator(n = 10, type = "p")
Error in locator(n = 10, type = "p") : plot.new has not been called yet


Is there a similar function that works with dispalyed images ?

thanks
Peter
