2-8 Using the Interactive Menu

The [Interactive] menu includes all of the commands contained on the [Action] menu. Listed

below are the differences between the [Action] menu and [Interactive] menu.

Interactive Menu and Action Menu

•With the [Action] menu, you select a command to input the appropriate function into the

work area.

•With the [Interactive] menu, you drag the stylus across existing input in the work area and

then select a command. This executes the command operation you selected in the work

area.

• The [Interactive] menu has an “apply” command while the [Action] menu does not.

•When a command uses multiple arguments, a dialog box appears prompting you for the

arguments with the [Interactive] menu.

Tip

• Operation of the following [Interactive] menu commands is identical to the same commands on

the [Action] menu.

[Transformation], [Calculation], [Complex], [List-Create], [List-Calculation], [Matrix-Create],

[Matrix-Calculation], [Vector], [Equation/Inequality], [Assistant]

• For information about using these commands, see “2-7 Using the Action Menu”.

Interactive Menu Example

The following example shows how to use the [Transformation]-[factor] command from both

the [Interactive] menu and the [Action] menu.

Example: To factorize the expression x

– 3x

+ 3x – 1

u To factorize from the Interactive menu

(1) In the work area, input the expression you want to factorize (x

– 3x

+ 3x – 1).
