Thicker lines in graphing? - mpowell@rogershsa.com - 12-28-2014 09:09 PM

Hi, is there a way to make the lines thicker when graphing with the HP Prime?

Not currently. In the Advanced Graphing app, you could replace an equation with an inequality (e.g., ABS(Y-SIN(X))<.1 instead of Y-SIN(X)=0), but the thickness would depend on how much you've zoomed in (and isn't uniform — it's not the Minkowski sum of a curve with a disc, but instead is the union of a bunch of level sets).

A rather cheesy way to do this is to "scribble" another curve on top.

If F1(X) has your function

F2(X): F1(X)+sin(100X)

Will darken the plot up a little.

Anyhow, I agree with your request and also hope they add log scales as an option.

In addition to thicker lines and log axes, I'd like to see larger point symbols on scatter plots.

Log axes option (base 10) will be nice.

Not so sure about thicker lines and bigger symbols - - things will get too crowded very quickly. The current line style / resolution is fine with me.
