This seems to be a better subject for what we're now discussing. A
colleague and I wrote a python function on linux to do this. It
requires a touch screen or graphics tablet. It's quite a small code
and he would be happy to make it public if there's interest. It's now
my standard tool for looking at data. Contact me if interested.
