% The SCALE controls allow the user to change the size %of the function without changing its shape, orientaion, %or the position of the point Y. The value displayed is %"sqrt(abs(det(A)))", where A is the standard matrix %corresponding to the linear transformation. % The LENGTH controls allow the user to change the %lengths of sides XY or YZ, while maintaining all angles, %the lengths of two of the sides, and the position of the %point Y. The user may toggle between sides XY and YZ by %clicking the button on which these lables appear. This %allows the user to make the function "taller" or "wider". %The max value is 1.4, just slightly less than sqrt(2), %the longest line which will fit in the unit square. % The FLIP buttons flip the current function about the %indicated axis: % ! : the line x=0.5 % - : the line y=0.5 % / : the line y=x (connecting (0,0) & (1,1)) % \ : the line y=1-x (connecting (1,0) & (0,1)) %These buttons are especially usefull when used along with %the COPY button (see FCN SELECTION), as they allow the %user to make identical copies symmetric to some axis %(many of the most interesting fractals have some degree %of symmetry).
