How do I continuously read the mouse position as the mouse is moving only on axes on a figure

Hi,
I want to read and show the mouse position continuously on my figure. But I want to show it only when the mouse is on the axes and not on the figure.
How can I do it?

Use the 'WindowButtonMotionFcn' and display the changes only, when the mouse is over the axes. You can do this either by comparing the coordinates or maybe by the undocumented function hittest(FigHandle), which replies the object is mouse is over.
