Graphics primitives are drawn in the order in which they are given inGraphics:

Polygons can fold over themselves:

Vertices can be shared by usingGraphicsComplex:

Inset an expression in a graphic:

Directives can specify color and opacity of faces:

Colors, thickness, and dashing directives affect lines, arrows, and edges:

Some primitives have special directives to specify various properties:

Directives can be applied to individual objects usingStyle:

Graphics directives remain in effect only until the end of the list that contains them:

Use an ordinary coordinate system:

Specify coordinates by fractions of the plot range:

Specify coordinates by fractions of the whole image:

Offset coordinates by printer's points:

Specify the coordinates withinInset to be aligned with the center of the enclosing graphic:

Use numerical values forAspectRatio:

Draw all the axes:

Draw the axis but not the axis:

Place a label for the axis:

Specify a label for each axis:

Determine where the axes cross automatically:

Specify the axes' origin explicitly:

Specify the overall axes style, including the ticks and the tick labels:

Specify the style of each axis:

Specify a background color:

Align the center of a graphic with the baseline of the text:

Specify the baseline of a graphic as a fraction of the height by usingScaled:

Use the axis of a graphic as the baseline:

Set the starting style:

Set multiple starting styles:

Allow the individual graphics objects to be selectable by a single click:

No individual object is selectable; the whole graphic appears as one object:

The first click selects the whole graphic, and subsequent ones select individual objects:

Draw a disk above the graphic, including the axes:

By default, expressions are displayed usingTraditionalForm in graphics:

Display expressions usingStandardForm:

Labels are also affected byFormatType setting:

Draw a frame around the whole graphic:

Draw a frame on the left and the right edges:

Specify frame labels for the bottom and the left edges:

Specify labels for each edge:

Specify the overall frame style:

Specify the style of each frame edge:

Put a frame, but no ticks:

Tick mark labels on the bottom and the left frame edges:

Frame ticks on the bottom and the right edges:

Specify frame tick and frame tick label style:

Specify frame tick style for each edge:

Put grids across a 2D graphic:

Draw grid lines at specific positions:

Specify the style of each grid:

Specify the overall grid style:

Allow no margins outside ofImageSize:

Have 20-point margins on all sides:

Leave different margins on each side:

Leave no padding outside of the plot range:

Leave enough padding for all objects and labels that are present:

Specify the same padding for all sides in printer's points:

Specify different padding on each side:

Use predefined symbolic sizes:

Use an explicit image width:

Use an explicit image width and height:

Specify the overall style of all the label-like elements:

Display a label on the top of the graphic inTraditionalForm:

UseStyle and other typesetting functions to modify how the label appears:

Display all objects:

Explicitly choose and ranges:

Force clipping at thePlotRange:

PlotRange->s is equivalent toPlotRange->{{-s,s},{-s,s}}:

Allow graphics objects to spread beyondPlotRange:

Clip all graphics objects atPlotRange:

Include coordinate unit of padding on all sides:

Include padding usingScaled coordinates:

Specify different padding on each side:

The contents of a graphic use the whole region:

Limit the contents of the graphic to the middle half of the region in each direction:

ImagePadding can also be used to add padding around a graphic:

Define a simple graphic to use as a background:

Use it in multiple graphics:

Specify that vertical frame labels should be rotated:

Specify that vertical frame labels should not be rotated:

Draw the axes but no tick marks:

Place tick marks automatically:

Draw tick marks at the specific positions:

Specify the styles of the ticks and tick labels:

Specify the styles of and axis ticks separately:
