You need two things:

1) after selection, open up a Selection Inspector panel, the current object is selected. Then make the view window active, go to Display Style of the Selection inspector and make Point Label visible.

Under Label Mode, you can select which field to display,..., and you will not see the coordinates.

2) Go back to your pipeline, and for example, use a Calculator to add the coordinates array to the PointData. Go back to step 1
