How to plot current thru a resistor??

I have read the documentation for Plotting Outputs, which says: 'Clicking on a circuit element's terminal will cause the current into the terminal to plotted, as well as the voltage at the terminal. Clicking a point where multiple circuit elements meet will cause all the currents going into the elements to be plotted, as well as the voltage at the node where they meet.' I cannot get this to work. Anyone have a circuit that demonstrates this??

Hint: hover the mouse over a node and look at the bottom right corner of the Editor window.
