When you press *, the Graph screen immediately displays
(instead of replotting) the previous function graph(s) if no
changes were made. If changes were made, the functions are

• Selected or deselected a function.
• Changed the value of a variable in a selected function.
• Changed a

variable or a - g setting.
• Cleared drawings by selecting

Exploring the Graph with the Free-Moving Cursor Exploring the Graph with the Free-Moving Cursor
Use ", !, $, and # to move the cursor around the Graph
screen. When you first display the graph, the cursor is in the
middle of the screen but is not visible. When you press a
cursor key, the cursor moves from that point and can be seen.
(Remember to use the - g
CoordOn
setting if you want
to see the (X,Y) coordinates at the bottom of the screen.)
Exploring a Function Graph with Exploring a Function Graph with )
Pressing ) allows you to move the ! and " cursor keys
from one plotted point to another and displays the cursor
coordinates at the bottom of the screen (if
CoordOn
is set). If
ExprOn
(- g) is set, the expression being traced
appears in the top left corner.
