OxyPlot WPF get selected data point

I have an Oxyplot chart displaying a lineseries, shown as follows

                    <oxy:Plot x:Name="MyChart"
                              Title="Real"
                              Grid.Row="1"
                              Grid.Column="0">
                        <oxy:Plot.Series>
                            <oxy:LineSeries Title="MySeries"/>
                        </oxy:Plot.Series>
                        <oxy:Plot.Axes>
                            <oxy:LinearAxis Position="Left" TicklineColor="White" Title= "MySeries"/>
                            <oxy:LinearAxis Position="Bottom" TicklineColor="White" />    
                        </oxy:Plot.Axes>
                    </oxy:Plot>

When the user left clicks on the line, the tracker is displayed, showing the selected data point. I would like to have a handler in my code to get the selected data point but am not sure the correct way to do this.

I have tried adding a handler as follows

    this.MyChart.ActualModel.MouseDown += OxyMouseDown;

    private void OxyMouseDown(object sender, OxyMouseDownEventArgs e)
    {
        LineSeries lineSeries = sender as LineSeries;
        if (lineSeries != null)
        {
            double x = lineSeries.InverseTransform(e.Position).X;
        }
    }

However, although the handler gets called, the sender is never of type LineSeries and therefore I can never transform the point.

Can someone help please?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, this solution is know deprecated. All events except for PlotView where marked as such.

The answer is that the binding of new events should be declared in a PlotController. an exemple is provided here.

to go further, the event can be handled more specifically by this way:

_sectionPlotCtrl.BindMouseDown(OxyMouseButton.Left, new DelegateViewCommand<OxyMouseDownEventArgs>(myPlot_HandleMouseDown));

...

private void myPlot_HandleMouseDown(IView view, IController controller, OxyMouseDownEventArgs e)
 {
      //handle mouse down stuff
 }

the oxyMouseDownEventArgs has a hitTestResult, that would return the nearest point from the serie.

Replace the Plot element with a PlotView element and create a PlotModel to which you add your series and axes:

PlotModel plotModel = new PlotModel() { Title = "Real" };
LineSeries lineSeries = new LineSeries() { Title = "MySeries" };
plotModel.Series.Add(lineSeries);
//...and add the axes
MyChart.Model = plotModel;

XAML:

<oxy:PlotModel x:Name="MyChart" Grid.Row="1" />

Then you should be able to handle the event of the LineSeries:

lineSeries.MouseDown += OxyMouseDown;
