Storing Graph Pictures (Pic)
DRAW STO Menu
To display the
DRAW STO menu, press y < |. When you select an instruction from the
DRAW STO menu, the TI-84 Plus returns to the home screen or the program editor. The picture
and graph database instructions are not interactive.
Storing a Graph Picture
You can store up to 10 graph pictures, each of which is an image of the current graph display, in
picture variables
Pic1 through Pic9, or Pic0. Later, you can superimpose the stored picture onto a
displayed graph from the home screen or a program.
A picture includes drawn elements, plotted functions, axes, and tick marks. The picture does not
include axes labels, lower and upper bound indicators, prompts, or cursor coordinates. Any parts
of the display hidden by these items are stored with the picture.
To store a graph picture, follow these steps.
1. Select 1:StorePic from the DRAW STO menu. StorePic is pasted to the current cursor location.
2. Enter the number (from 1 to 9, or 0) of the picture variable to which you want to store the
picture. For example, if you enter 3, the TI-84 Plus will store the picture to
Pic3.
Note: You also can select a variable from the PICTURE secondary menu ( 4). The
variable is pasted next to
StorePic.
3. Press Í to display the current graph and store the picture.
