Application Window
The following shows the basic configuration of a built-in application window.
Menu bar
Tool bar
Application window(s)
Soft keyboard
See page 18.
Status bar
See page 17.
Many applications split the display between an upper window and a lower window, each of which shows
different information. When using two windows, the currently selected window (the one where you can perform
operations) is called the "active window". The menu bar, toolbar, and status bar contents are all applicable to
the active window. The active window is indicated by a thick boundary around it.
You can perform the operations below on an Application window.
To do this:
Switch the active window
Resize the active window
so it fills the display
Swap the upper and
lower windows
Close the active windows
When you tap the r icon while a dual window is on the display, the currently active window will fill the display, but
Tip:
the other (inactive) window does not close. It remains open, hidden behind the active window. This means you can
tap S to bring the hidden window forward and make it the active window, and send the current active window to the
background.
u Changing the Display Orientation (Application Menu and Some Applications Only)
You can change the display orientation to horizontal while any one of the following is displayed: application
menu, or the Main, Graph & Table, Conics, or Physium application. Tap g to switch to horizontal (landscape)
display orientation. To return to vertical (portrait) display orientation, tap g again.
Perform this operation:
While a dual window is on the display, tap anywhere inside the window that does
not have a thick boundary around it to make it the active window. Note that you
cannot switch the active window while an operation is being performed in the
current active window.
While a dual window is on the display, tap r. This causes the active window to
fill the display. To return to the dual window display, tap r again.
While a dual window is on the display, tap S. This causes the upper window
to become the lower window, and vice versa. Swapping windows does not have
any effect on their active status. If the upper window is active when you tap S
for example, that window will remain active after it becomes the lower window.
While a dual window is on the display, tap C at the top right corner of the
window to close the active window. This will cause the other (inactive) window to
fill the display.
