Description Nicolas Brisset 2005-02-04 18:13:36 UTC
Version:           1.1.0_dr1 (using KDE 3.3.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

The status bar could be used to give quick access to more information than the current cursor/next point position, e.g. min/max/mean values for the curve closest to the pointer in the currently visible range (for global stats there are the dedicated scalars).
If computing these values is too resource-intensive we should add an option in the settings menu to activate them or not.

This request is essentially the same functionality as requested in #86915 and #89892.

View labels make it easy to do this inline in the view.  I don't think it's a good idea to add this sort of functionality in multiple places, so let's work with the inline stuff.  Hopefully we'll have a UI to create view labels soon.

Is the required view label functionality implemented now, or not yet ? I don't quite understand how this should work (is the label text parsed to get e.g. values from statistics scalars ?)...
