2 Right click anywhere inside the plot and select “Configure”.

3 Select the “Data” tab, check the “Show Event Data” box, select “Apply” and then “OK”.

4 The black dots on the trend plot correlate to events for the point. Move the mouse cursor over the black dots to see the event’s description (The blown up image of the event is for illustration purposes only so you can read the type of information that will be shown… I tried my graphic artist skills here )
