Mouse Coordinates on Plot

[Nicholas Earl]

Hello Chaco users!

I'm quite new, but have already grown to love Chaco (and more so the possibilities!) I'm attempting to do a baseline integration into my workflow. In almost all fronts, the efficiency is amazing for the constant data analysis I do. However, there is one thing I cannot easily find a solution to, and that is displaying mouse coordinates as, possibly, an overlay somewhere on the plot screen. Since I'm analyzing mostly xy plots, etc, it's very convenient to have the coordinates evident.

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks for your time and efforts.

Nick

Hi Nick,

You might want to look at the basic/image_inspector.py demo that gives
a demonstration of what can be done on an image. Doing it on an XY
plot will not be that hard with such an example.
