Here is an example data = Table[Tooltip[Sin[x]], {x, -Pi, Pi, Pi/100.}]; ListPlot[data, Joined -> True] And now if you move the mouse over the plot, the y-value (i.e. sin(x) ) value will be displayed, here is a screen shot http://12000.org/tmp/093009/tooltip.PNG But with the direct plot command, I still can't figure it Plot[Tooltip[Sin[x]], {x, -Pi, Pi}] will display "Sin[x]", instead of the current value of it. As shown here: http://12000.org/tmp/093009/tooltip2.PNG I tried using Dynamics and Annotation with Mousover to get it to work, but no luck. I am sure some Mathematica expert here will have an answer on how to do it with a direct plot command instead of discrete plot. --Nasser __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4470 (20090930) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
