If you have the Image Processing Toolbox, you can use impoint() instead of ginput().

MATLAB: “Go Until Cursor” shortcut in R2012a

This is not an answer for R2012a, but in later Toolstrip releases (R2012b and beyond) you can right-click on the "Run to Cursor" button and choose "Add to Quick Access Toolbar".

You can always assign a keyboard shortcut too, using Preferences->Keyboard->Shortcuts.

MATLAB: In a callback, how to determine which mouse button was pressed to generate the callback

You can determine which mouse event has occurred by examining the 'SelectionType' property of the figure. The property can take the following values:

1. normal: left mouse button

2. extend: right mouse button on a 2-button mouse;

middle mouse button on a 3-button mouse

3. alt: left+right buttons on a 2-button mouse;

 right mouse button on a 3-button mouse

4. open:double mouse click

For example, you can see the values taken by executing the following:

figure;
set(gcf,'WindowButtonDownFcn', 'disp(get(gcf,''SelectionType''));');

Now click in the current figure to see the values displayed.
