- Function Keys
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- There are a number of function keys through F1 - F11 defined by
- kaos. A description of major function keys are given below.
-
- F1 A toggle switch for enabling and disabling the clipping of data
- outside the drawing box area. When clipped, data are not
- recorded to memory.
-
- F2 A toggle switch for turing on and off the alert mode.
- If the alert mode is off, the pop-up confirmation windows are suppressed.
- Actions associated with function keys are always performed without
- confirmation. The messages are printed in the parent window.
-
- F3 Reset the panel item values for a starting point to the last
- point of the previous orbit.
-
- F4 Recover lost parameter space data.
-
- F5 Recover lost phase space data.
-
- F7 Extend the number of digits shown in the panel items to double
- precision.
-
- F8 Reset the "top box" sizes to be the current box sizes.
-
- F9 A toggle switch for enabling and disabling the function mode. In
- the function mode, one can plot and colorcode user-defined
- functions.
-
- F10 A toggle switch for turning on and off the recording mode. When
- the recording mode is off, orbit data are just displayed and
- not recorded in memory. This is handy for a large dynamical
- system.
-
- F11 A toggle switch for turning on and off the text input mode. When
- the text input mode is on, one can enter textual information
- onto the canvas drawing area for commenting. This is useful
- when dumping a raster image of the graphics or making slides.
