Hamza,

Have a look at the mouse interaction example: https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/blob/master/examples/crosshair.py

Does that get you what you need?

Good luck,

Hi Hamza,

I think there is some confusion between the Graphics View framework (which handles the use of QGraphicsItems, which is ~98% of where pyqtgraph operates in), and QtWidgets, which are the more generic UI components.  You can embed a graphics view within a QtWidget (that's how we get plots in windows), but there is no way*  to put a QWidget within a Graphics View (not technically true, there is QGraphcisProxyWidget, but you want no part of that as it will kill any performance).

If you're using a GraphicsLayoutWidget, and are looking to display text within the plot, you want to be using a TextItem (which is a QGraphicsItem).  LabelItem is a QWidget, which I believe is used as a helper object for ParameterTrees.  

In addition to the crosshair example that Martin linked, there is also the InfiniteLine example which likely has some similar behavior to what you're looking for.
