There is a getCursor() method in DisplayRenderer which will give the
xyz values for the cursor. If you have row,col directly mapped to
YAxis and XYAxis, then you could call ScalarMap.inverseScaleValues()
passing in the x and y values to get back row and column.
Once you got the (row,col), you could create a new RealTuple and
use the Function.evaluate() method to get out values for exp or err.
Alternatively, you could call DisplayRenderer.getDirectAxisValue()
with the RealTypes for row and col to get the double values.
The big question is when to implement these methods. You could add a
DisplayListener to listen for DisplayEvents (ex: MOUSE_PRESSED_*) to
know when to initiate your action.

Hopefully someone else can look into this for you as I'll be out of
town for the next few days. This sounds like a bug in ScalarMap.
I'm sorry this is cryptic, but I'm trying to get ready for a trip,
so don't have time to answer fully.
