Dragging to a Plot Region
To use the drag-and-drop method, use the plot region created by one of the
other methods or insert an empty plot region into the document. Empty plot
regions can be two-dimensional or three-dimensional.
Advantages of the drag-and-drop method include the ease of adding and re-
moving plots and the independence from plotting command syntax.
1. From the Insert menu, select Plot, and then 2D.
2. Enter the expression sin(x) in an input region.
3. Select the full expression in the input region and drag it into the plot region.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 using the following expressions: sin(2*x), sin(x+2),
and sin(x)^2.
5. To remove an expression from the plot region, drag-and-drop the expres-
sion plot from the plot region to a Maple input region.
