actions via mouseover ? - use a modifier Key :mano_que_señala_a_la_derecha::botón_cuadrado_con_borde_blanco:

Hi,

I  wanted to trigger an action via a data point.

 

The approach via Hover Label  / Click is way too slow:
one has to wait till the hover label appears, then one has to "find" the link and click.

 

On the other hand: when I use Hover Label / "Picture" the result - yes, is very fast - but too uncontrolled.
Whenever the user moves the mouse over a data point, the action is triggered. buah!

So, my final solution was to trigger the action just if a Modifier Key is pressed, like here with CTRL:

 

The result:
JMP as interactive as we love it : )

One can use the hoverlabel framework to open the question directly with the mouseover - without the detour via the actual hover label.
