MagicPlot shows the distance in status line when you select zoom box by mouse dragging. You can press ''Esc'' or reduce box size to zero before releasing mouse button to prevent zooming if you want only to see the distance. If multiple axes are located under cursor MagicPlot will show the distance in terms of current axes (showed with blue corners).

 +  * ''→'' or ''↓'' or ''Tab'' selects the next Curve 
 +  * ''←'' or ''↑'' or ''Shift+Tab'' selects the previous Curve.

 +If no Curves are selected the first pressing on these keys will select the first Curve. If the Figure contains multiple Axes, the Curves in all Axes are accessible in turn by this method.
