Zoom Tool

Description

ZoomBox

Lets you draw a box and zoom in on that box.

ZoomIn,
ZoomOut

Lets you select a point and zoom in or out by an
amount defined by

SetFactors

.

ZoomDec

Sets

x

and

y

to .1, and centers the origin.

ZoomSqr

Adjusts Window variables so that a square or circle is
shown in correct proportion (instead of a rectangle
or ellipse).

ZoomStd

Sets Window variables to their default values.

xmin

= ë

10

ymin

= ë

10

xres

=

2

xmax

=

10

ymax

=

10

xscl

=

1

yscl

=

1

ZoomTrig

Sets Window variables to preset values that are often
appropriate for graphing trig functions. Centers the
origin and sets:

x =

p

/24 (.130899... radians

ymin =

ë

4

or 7.5 degrees)

ymax = 4

xscl =

p

/2 (1.570796... radians

yscl = 0.5

or 90 degrees)

ZoomInt

Lets you select a new center point, and then sets

x

and

y

to 1 and sets

xscl

and

yscl

to 10.

ZoomData

Adjusts Window variables so that all selected stat
plots are in view. Refer to Chapter 16.

ZoomFit

Adjusts the viewing window to display the full range
of dependent variable values for the selected
functions. In function graphing, this maintains the
current

xmin

and

xmax

and adjusts

ymin

and

ymax

.

Memory

Lets you store and recall Window variable settings so
that you can recreate a custom viewing window.

SetFactors

Lets you set

Zoom

factors for

ZoomIn

and

ZoomOut

.
