Plot setup maple

For example, when the control for style is set to point then the control for thickness becomes hidden and is replaced by controls for symbol and symbol size. The embedded controls in the panel have tooltip descriptions to facilitate their use. This command may be copied and reused elsewhere in the worksheet.

Plotting options whose controls are set to their respective default values are not included in the plotting command, with the exception of the computational ranges for the independent variables.

Tip: You can zoom in or out in the Plot Builder panel by holding Ctrl Command , on Mac and using the mouse scroll wheel. If you want to revist the Plot Builder to modify the plot and the Context Panel is not currently open, click the plot region and the panel reappears.

Note: When the panel reappears its components are in the same state as when they were last changed. This includes the case of restarting the kernel engine or closing and reopening the worksheet. However, re-executing a page or selection with Plot Builder plots resets the Plot Builder. More than one such interactive plot can exist in a single worksheet, but only one instance can be created within any single execution group.

Combining different types of plots can be accomplished by first using the interactive plot builder to produce and assign them separately, then using the plots[display] command to show them together. To build animations interactively through the Plot Builder:.

From the context panel for an expression, select Plot Builder. Select the animation toggle button to create an animation. Specify options as desired in the context panel. Click build animation to create the plot animation. Use the animation toolbar to play the animation. Note: If you are animating a plot with more than one parameterized variable, you can change the sequence order of these variables using the options in the context panel. See Also.

Please add your Comment Optional. E-mail Address Optional. You will learn how to combine multiple plots and create animations. To try this material on your own, start with an empty Maple document. Perform the steps described in the left column of each table below. The results of the steps are displayed in the right column for reference. Note for non-Windows users : The keystrokes given in this document are for Windows.

There will be differences for other platforms. If you are using a different platform, see Shortcut Keys. Maple can produce 2-D and 3-D plots of equations and expressions. Learn to plot in Maple. The fastest way to plot an expression in Maple is to use the Context Panel. Example : Use the point probe to find the coordinates of different points in the graph. When you hover over a point on the graph, the coordinates are displayed. Hold down the left mouse button and use the mouse to move the plot around.

Tip : You can also change the manipulator tool by clicking on the plot, and then selecting the appropriate tool from the plot toolbar :.

Setting the Axis Properties for a Plot. The default x -range is chosen to be a reasonable domain for the given expression. The default y -range for a plot is chosen based on the values computed. You can change the range after creating a plot by modifying the axis properties.

Example : Click on the plot, then select the Axis Properties button from the plotting toolbar. For both the horizontal and vertical axes, you can set min and max values, set number of tickmarks, and control advanced features such as number of subticks.

Under the Vertical tab, clear the Use data extants check box, and change the Range min to Combining Plots. You can easily add another plot on the same set of axes. Example : Enter another equation in x such as sin x 2 , highlight the new expression with your mouse, and drag it onto the plot. Tip : When you select and drag the expression onto the plot, the expression is deleted from its original position.

Another way to drag is to use the Copy and Drag feature:. Highlight the expression, hold [Ctrl] , and drag it onto the plot. Annotating Plots. You can add titles, captions, and legends to plots. From the Context Panel, select Title or Legend. You can also add additional information to plots by using the drawing tools. Lines, arrows, text, 2-D math, and shapes are available. Example : Click on the plot, then from the drop-down menu in the context bar, and select.

Use the text tool T to enter labels for the curves. Use [F5] to toggle between text and math, and enter labels for the curves in Math mode.
