Trace a graph
You can trace along a function using the 0 or 0 key which
moves the cursor along the graph. The display also shows the
current coordinate position {x, y) of the cursor. Trace mode
and the coordinate display are automatically set when a plot is
drawn.
Note: Tracing might not appear to exactly follow your plot if
the resolution (in Plot Setup view) is set to Faster. This is
because RES: FASTER plots in only every other column,
whereas tracing always uses every column.
In Function and Sequence Aplets: You can also scroll
(move the cursor) left or right beyond the edge of the display
window in trace mode, giving you a view of more of the plot.

determine the extent of zooming, and whether the zoom is
centered about the cursor.
