Dear All

According to the identify.hclust documentation the function "cuts the tree at 
the vertical position of the pointer and highlights the cluster containing the 
horizontal position of the pointer".

When I carry out this, the tree isn't cut where I click - in fact, there seems 
to be a limit below which I cannot go.

Consider the following code:

mat <- matrix(rnorm(5000), ncol=5)
hc <- hclust(dist(mat))
plot(hc)
identify(hc)

No matter where I click on the tree, I cannot cut below around about 5.   I can 
cut above that value, but not below.

Any help is much appreciated.
