Use options on the Zoom menu to zoom in or out,
horizontally or vertically, or both, etc.

Use options on the View menu (

V

) to select a pre-

defined view. Note that the Autoscale option

attempts to provide a best fit, showing as many of the
critical features of each plot as possible.

By dragging a finger horizontally or vertically across the

screen, you can quickly see parts of the plot that are

initially outside the set x and y ranges. This is easier than

resetting the range of an axis.

Zoom options—with numerous examples—are
explained in more detail in “Zoom” on page 88.

You can set the

starting value and

step value (that is,

the increment) for

the x-column, as

well as the zoom factor for zooming in or out on a

row of the table. Note that in Numeric view, zooming

does not affect the size of what is displayed. Instead,

it changes the

Num Step

setting (that is, the

increment between consecutive x-values). Zooming in

decreases the increment; zooming out increases the

increment. This is further explained in “Zoom” on

page 100.
