Window Settings

Home Screen
From the HOME screen, there are two ways to start working with a graph:

1. From Scratchpad, choose B. Graph.

2. From Documents, choose 1 NEW,
then 2 Add Graph.

The default viewing window:

The Standard Window on the TI-Nspire CX II (shown at the right) is 20 units wide x 13.29 units high with a screen size of 320 by 240 pixels.

This means that graphs will not be distorted because one axis displays a larger scale than the other axis. The tick marks, of one unit, are of equal length on both axes.



Window Settings:

Set your own window:
Press - #4 Window/Zoom -
#1 Window Setting

This will allow you to control the window to any dimensions you wish.

When you create your own window, you may lose the 1:1 aspect ratio of the window.




Zoom:
There are several "zoom" features. For example, look at "Zoom in".
Adjust the window by choosing - #4 Window/Zoom - #3 Zoom In.
Move the magnifying glass to where you wish the new center to be located and press ENTER.
Pressing ESC will remove the magnifying glass. Press - #4 - #5 Standard to return to the standard window.
