Note:
You can use a negative
q
step
. If so,
q
min
must be greater than
q
max
.
Standard values (set when you select
6:ZoomStd
from the
„
Zoom
toolbar menu) are:
You may need to change the standard values for the
q
variables (
q
min
,
q
max
,
q
step
) to
ensure that enough points are plotted.
Setting the Graph Format
To display coordinates as
r
and
q
values, use:

Increment for the
q
value. Polar equations are evaluated
at:

... not to exceed ...
r(
q

xmin
,
xmax
,
ymin
,
ymax
Boundaries of the viewing window.
xscl
,
yscl
Distance between tick marks on the x and y axes.
