General
- Algebra View: options to sort by Construction Order & by Layer
- Settings -> Advanced -> Use Path and Region Parameters: "On" makes Points on objects keep their Path Parameter when the parent object is moved (the behaviour in GeoGebra 4), "Off" makes them stay as close as possible to their old position.
- Double-click on a View's title bar to maximize it
- Logical implication operator added (-> or→) eg a = false → true
Improved Tools
You can now just drag a shape to translate it
New Tools
New Functions
- psi(x)
The Digamma function
- polygamma(m, x)
The Polygamma function is the (m+1)th derivative of the natural logarithm of the Gamma function, gamma(x) (m=0,1)
- sinIntegral(x)
The Sine Integral function
- cosIntegral(x)
The Cosine Integral function
- expIntegral(x)
The Exponential Integral function
New Commands
- Flatten[ <List of Lists> ]
- TriangleCenter[ <Point>,<Point>,<Point>,<Number> ]
- TriangleCubic[ <Point>,<Point>,<Point>,<Number> ]
- TriangleCurve[ <Point>,<Point>,<Point>,<Equation in A,B,C> ]
- Trilinear[ <Point>,<Point>,<Point>,<Number>, <Number>, <Number> ]
- Barycenter[ <List of Points>,<List of Weights> ]
- SurdText[ <Number> ]
- SurdText[ <Point> ]
- Function[ <List of Numbers> ]
First two elements of list are the min and max x-coordinates and the rest of the numbers are the y-coordinates (evenly spaced between x-min and x-max). Used by the Freehand Tool.
- BarCode[ ]
Searches for and decodes a barcode from the currently active Graphics View and creates a text if successful.
- BarCode[ <Image> ]
Searches for and decodes a barcode from the Image and creates a text if successful.
- BarCode[ "<Text>", "<Format (optional)>" , "<Error Correction (optional)>", <Width (optional)>, <Height (optional)>]
- BarCode[ <Number>, "<Format (optional)>" , "<Error Correction (optional)>", <Width (optional)>, <Height (optional)>]
Creates a barcode from the Text or Number. If the format is not specified then it will be guessed (eg as EAN_8, UPC_A, EAN_13 or QR_CODE) Possible values for Format are "AZTEC", "CODABAR", "CODE_39", "CODE_93", "CODE_128", "DATA_MATRIX", "EAN_8", "EAN_13", "ITF", "PDF_417", "QR_CODE", "RSS_14", "RSS_EXPANDED", "UPC_A". Possible values for Error Correction are "L", "M", "Q", "H".
