For the cursor to remain responsive you must keep a reference to it.

Other Parameters

**lineprops :

.Line2D properties that control the appearance of the lines. See also ~.Axes.axhline .

Parameters

ax : `matplotlib.axes.Axes`

The :None:None:`~.axes.Axes` to attach the cursor to.

horizOn : bool, default: True

Whether to draw the horizontal line.

vertOn : bool, default: True

Whether to draw the vertical line.

useblit : bool, default: False

Use blitting for faster drawing if supported by the backend.

A crosshair cursor that spans the axes and moves with mouse cursor.

Examples

See /gallery/widgets/cursor .

See :

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
