I've found that the error arises in line 51 of RangeSelectorTool.cpp because the equality concerning RTTI is not satisfied.
comment:6 Changed 8 years ago by Karl Palmen
I see that the graph has RTTI type 1000 = User Item, while the Range Selector Tool expects a graph of RTTI type 4 = Curve. See http://qwt.sourceforge.net/class_qwt_plot_item.html .

I tried out what would happen if the Range Selector Tool were to accept a User Item as a curve. This as expected fixed the "All the curves on this plot are empty!", but did not lead to a working range selector. It seems the the Range Select Tool does require a QwtPlotCurve and will not work with a MantidMatrixCurve as provided by a Matrix Workspace.
