Chapter 3: Function Graphing 75
Format settings define a graph’s appearance on the display. Format settings apply to all graphing
modes. Seq graphing mode has an additional mode setting (Chapter 6).
Changing a Format Setting
To change a format setting, follow these steps.
1. Press †, ~, }, and | as necessary to move the cursor to the setting you want to select.
2. Press Í to select the highlighted setting.
RectGC, PolarGC
RectGC (rectangular graphing coordinates) displays the cursor location as rectangular coordinates
X and Y.
PolarGC (polar graphing coordinates) displays the cursor location as polar coordinates R and q.
The
RectGC/PolarGC setting determines which variables are updated when you plot the graph,
move the free-moving cursor, or trace.
•
RectGC updates X and Y; if CoordOn format is selected, X and Y are displayed.
•
PolarGC updates X, Y, R, and q; if CoordOn format is selected, R and q are displayed.
CoordOn, CoordOff
CoordOn (coordinates on) displays the cursor coordinates at the bottom of the graph. If ExprOff
format is selected, the function number is displayed in the top-right corner.
CoordOff (coordinates off) does not display the function number or coordinates.
GridOff, GridOn
Grid points cover the viewing window in rows that correspond to the tick marks on each axis.
GridOff does not display grid points.
GridOn displays grid points.
