Re: Right-button scrolling in TCP Graphs broken in 1.8.0?

[Martin Mathieson <martin.r.mathieson () googlemail com>]

There is a comment in the code to say that the crosshairs with the lines
didn't work well with cairo.  The code is still there but things
are currently configured to use the crosshair cursor instead.

I have reused the TCP graph code for another protocol recently, and plan to
try enabling the line-drawing code to see if I can see what goes wrong.  An
alternative might be a text control that gets updated with time+sequence
number when the cursor moves.  Does anyone know what went wrong with the
cross-hair lines, or on what platforms?
