Using Trace

You can also move the pointer to a particular point by inputting coordinates. Pressing a number key displays a dialog box for inputting coordinates. Input the values you want and then tap [OK].

When there are multiple graphs on the Graph window, you can use the up and down cursor keys or the up and down graph controller arrows to move the pointer between graphs.

(5)To quit the trace operation, tap on the icon panel.

Tip

While the trace pointer is on the window, tapping the displayed coordinate values causes the coordinate values to appear in the message box. You can then copy the coordinates to the clipboard.

ISpecifying the Format of the Coordinates Displayed by Trace

Check boxes on the Graph Format dialog box (page 1-9-6) let you specify whether you want to display pointer coordinates only, or pointer coordinates plus the derivative. You can also turn off the display of the coordinates, if you want.

To do this:

Do this:

Display coordinates and theSelect the [Derivative/Slope] check box under
derivative[Graph Format].

 

 

 

Clear the [Coordinate] check box under [Graph Format].
Turn off coordinate display• Neither coordinates nor the derivative is displayed when
the [Coordinate] check box is cleared, regardless of the

 

 

current [Derivative/Slope] setting.

 

 

For details about Graph Format settings, see “Application Format Settings” on page 1-9-4.
