How to plot selected columns from UITable in app designer (2019b)?

I have created an app using designer app that displays data in a UITable. I want the user to select two columns then plot them. I have figured out how to keep track of the selected indices and get the selected columns out of that.

I tried this

T = app.UITable.Data;

plot(T(:,app.ColumnsSelected(1)),T(:,app.ColumnsSelected(2)));

The problem here is that T(:,app.ColumnsSelected(1or2)) is a table so plot gives an error because it doesn’t plot tables

I have been trying this for a while now without success.

Thanks

Use brace indexing

plot(app.UIAxesName, T{:,app.ColumnsSelected(1)},T{:,app.ColumnsSelected(2)});

Also, note that first input to plot shoule be the handle to UIAxes.
