Other views for scaling and splitting the graph

The preset viewing options menu (>9,(:6@) contains options for drawing the plot using certain pre-defined configurations. This is a shortcut for changing Plot view settings. For instance, if you have defined a trigonometric function, then you could select Trig to plot your function on a trigonometric scale. It also contains split-screen options.

In certain aplets, for example those that you download from the world wide web, the preset viewing options menu can also contain options that relate to the aplet.

VIEWS menu Press >9,(:6@, select an option, and press 2._.

options

Option	Meaning
Plot-	Splits the screen into the plot and a
Detail	close-up.
Plot-Table	Splits the screen into the plot and the
	data table.
Overlay	Plots the current expression(s) without
Plot	erasing any pre-existing plot(s).
Auto Scale	Rescales the vertical axis so that the
	display shows a representative piece of
	the plot, for the supplied x axis
	settings. (For Sequence and Statistics
	aplets, autoscaling rescales both axes.)
	The autoscale process uses the first
	selected function only to determine the
	best scale to use.
Decimal	Rescales both axes so each pixel = 0.1
	unit. Resets default values for XRNG
	(–6.5 to 6.5) and YRNG (–3.1 to 3.2).
	(Not in Sequence or Statistics aplets.)
Integer	Rescales horizontal axis only, making
	each pixel=1 unit. (Not available in
	Sequence or Statistics aplets.)
Trig	Rescales horizontal axis so
	1 pixel= π/24 radian, 7.58, or
	81/3 grads; rescales vertical axis so
	1 pixel = 0.1 unit.
	(Not in Sequence or Statistics aplets.)
