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?

xor does not work with cairo so some completely different approach is needed.

So I'm guessing not many people use this feature (assuming it really is a feature).  I've also noticed that the 
crosshairs have become a small "+" symbol instead of the vertical and horizontal hairlines that extended all the way to 
both axes, which made it easier to determine the values of the associated coordinates for the crosshair location.  It 
would be nice if that old behavior returned as well.

Should I  be submitting a bug report/feature request for this stuff?

Thanks!
