Scaling Constrained
|
Maple plots can be constrained or unconstrained.
|
•
|
Plots are unconstrained by default, which means the plot is scaled to fit the plot window. For example, the plot of a circle on unconstrained axes may appear oval or flattened so that the largest possible diagram can fit in the plot object.
|
•
|
Plots are constrained when the scales in all directions are of equal proportion. In this case, the plot of a circle appears perfectly round because the x and y axes are scaled in equal proportions.
|

|
To use Maple commands to alter data structures in standard plots, see plottools.
|
•
|
For plots containing dual axes, the constraining only applies to the first vertical axis.

Changing the Plot Scaling
|
|
1.
|
Click the plot to select it.
|
|
Alternatively, right-click (Control-click, for Macintosh) the plot to activate the context menu.
|
2.
|
From the Plot menu, select the Scaling Constrained check box. Alternatively, clear the check box to display an unconstrained plot.
