Hi, Mark.
One regular method to do what you need is to use graphics primitives like Line[], Arrow[] and so on and
to combine them with the graphics of a function using Show. Since Show[] inherits the properties of its first argument,
I recommend to put as a first argument the graph of your function.
Try for instance, this:
pl = Plot[Sin[x], {x, -\[Pi], \[Pi]}];
ln1 = Graphics[{Red, Thickness[0.01],
Line[{{-3 \[Pi]/4, -Sin[3 \[Pi]/4]}, {3 \[Pi]/4, Sin[3 \[Pi]/4]}}]
}];
Show[{pl, ln1}]
and play with the line color, thickness and coordinates.
Have fun, Alexei
I would like to plot straight lines into a graph of a function, i.e. after Plot[f[x], {x, -l, +l}]
I need to insert into the graph three straight lines. Could not bring to work graphics primitive Line
since I could make it plot only on a separate graph.
How can one Plot and Line on the same figure?
Mark.
