Slope fields

Every short segment shows the gradient dy/dx at that point. Set the window and step, then click to sketch a solution curve.

x/y min–max set the view and sampling window for the slope field (not a fit-to-curve). Step locks marks to a lattice. Pan/zoom still redraws marks over whatever is visible.
