Pinning Objects
Pinning objects prevents accidental changes as you move or manipulate other objects.
You can pin graphed functions, geometric objects, text objects, the graph axes, and the
background.
1. Select the object or objects to pin, or click an empty area if you are pinning the
background.
2. Display the context menu, and select Pin.
A pinned object displays a pin icon when you point to it.
3. To unpin an object, display its context menu, and select Unpin.
Notes:
• Although you cannot drag a pinned point, you can reposition it by editing its x and y
coordinates.
• You cannot pan the work area while the background is pinned.
