2. Managing Picture Plot Files
Picture Plot requires the use of a background image file. The following types of image files can
be opened by Picture Plot.
g3p file ... A file that contains a single image.
g3b file ... A file that contains multiple images.
You can use an image file that is already built into the calculator, or you can use CASIO
original contents you download from http://edu.casio.com.
k Starting a Picture Plot Operation
A Picture Plot operation is started by entering the Picture Plot mode and opening an image
file (g3p or g3b).
Note
Opening an image file is required when you enter the Picture Plot mode for the first time
after purchasing or resetting the calculator. After that, the image file you last opened will be
opened automatically whenever you enter the Picture Plot mode. After opening an image file,
you do not need to do so again unless you want to change to another image file or reset the
calculator.
u To open a file
1. From the Main Menu, enter the Picture Plot mode.
• This displays the file list screen.
• If the file you opened the last time you used the Picture Plot mode is displayed (or if the
Picture Plot screen is currently displayed), press K1(FILE)1(OPEN) to display the
file list screen.
2. Use f and c to highlight the file you want to open, and then press 1(OPEN) or w.
k Saving a File
Plotting points on the Picture Plot screen and saving the file will cause the Picture Plot plot
data to be added to the image file (g3p or g3b). This does not affect the image data of the
original image file and the file name extension remains the same as what it was before the
Picture Plot data was added. This means that even if you add Picture Plot data to an image
file, you will be able to use that file in other modes. Note, however, that the plots will not be
displayed if you open such an image file in another mode. Also using an image file in another
mode does not affect its Picture Plot data.
