or O 4. The TI-89 / TI-92 Plus automatically graphs
the selected functions.
While graphing is in progress:
¦ To pause graphing temporarily, press ¸. (The PAUSE
indicator replaces BUSY.) To resume, press ¸ again.
¦ To cancel graphing, press ´. To start graphing again from the
beginning, press † (ReGraph).
Depending on various settings, a function may be graphed such that
it is too small, too large, or offset too far to one side of the screen. To
correct this:
¦ Redefine the viewing window with different boundaries
(page 113).
¦ Use a Zoom operation (page 119).
When you display the Graph screen, the Smart Graph feature displays
the previous window contents immediately, provided nothing has
changed that requires regraphing.
Smart Graph updates the window and regraphs only if you have:
¦ Changed a mode setting that affects graphing, a function’s
graphing attribute, a Window variable, or a graph format.
¦ Selected or deselected a function or stat plot. (If you only select a
new function, Smart Graph adds that function to the Graph screen.)
¦ Changed the definition of a selected function or the value of a
variable in a selected function.
¦ Cleared a drawn object (Chapter 12).
¦ Changed a stat plot definition (Chapter 16).
Graphing the Selected Functions
When you are ready to graph the selected functions, display
the Graph screen. This screen uses the display style and
viewing window that you previously defined.
