Description
The GraphStyle( command allows you to set the graphing style of an equation (line, thick line, dotted line, etc.) from within a program.
Its first argument, equation #, is the number of the equation whose graphing style you want to change - this depends on the mode you're in. For example, if you wanted to change the graphing style of Y1, you would need to be in function mode and use the value 1 for this argument. If you wanted to change the graphing style of r4, you would need to be in polar mode and use the value 4.
The second argument is a number from 1 to 7, which translates to a graphing style as follows:
- 1 - a normal line, usually the default graph style.
- 2 - a thick line (three pixels wide).
- 3 - a line, with everything above it shaded (only valid in function mode).
- 4 - a line, with everything below it shaded (only valid in function mode).
- 5 - a path: a line, with a ball moving along it as it is graphed (not valid in sequential mode).
- 6 - animated: a ball moving along the graph (not valid in sequential mode).
- 7 - a dotted line.
Compare this to the effect of Connected or Dot mode. When either of these modes is set, all equations, from all graphing modes, are reverted to line style or dotted line style respectively; furthermore, it becomes the default graph style and clearing an equation will revert it to this graph style. The GraphStyle( command simply overrides these modes temporarily.
Advanced
In shading modes (3 and 4), the shading style cycles as follows:
- The first function graphed shades using vertical lines one pixel apart
- The second function shades using horizontal lines one pixel apart
- The third function shades using negatively sloping diagonal lines, two pixels apart.
- The fourth function shades using positively sloping diagonal lines, two pixels apart.
- After that, functions will cycle through these four styles in that order.
Error Conditions
- ERR:DOMAIN if the equation # is not a valid equation number in this mode, or if style # is not an integer 1-7.
- ERR:INVALID if the graphing style chosen is not valid for the current graphing mode.
