Show Coords - thetoolbar button

If that item of the Plot menu is checked or the button is pushed in, the x-y coordinates of the cursor will be interactively displayed in the active plot window. As the cursor is moved within the plot window the coordinates appear in the scale and measures of the displayed function(s) (Figure 4-23). If the Show cords item is unchecked or the button is not pushed in there is no interactive display of cursor coordinates.

Note: It is advisable to switch off this feature before using the Copy or Copy to Picture items of the Plot menu in order to maintain an optimal use of space in the other application.
