    285285The plotting style is determined by the command style which can set the line width, the line type (solid, dashed, dotted, etc), the point type (box, cross, etc), the point size, the color, and whether a pair of vectors is plotted as a sequence of points, a set of connected lines, or a histogram. Some functions which make plots use their own styles, as discussed below. The function limits lets the user set the range of the plot axes, or check the current setting.
    286 * The command `plot` will plot a pair of vectors on the current graphics window using the current plotting style for that window.
    287 * The command `zplot` will plot a pair of vectors with the point size scaled by a third vector, with maximum and minimum point sizes representing specified values.
    288 * The `cursor` command goes the other way: this command puts the Kapa window in cursor mode and waits for input from Kapa. The user can then type any alphanumeric key on the graphics windows and will be told both the pointer location (in the graphics coordinates) and will have the coordinates stored in status variables. For example, by typing `1` in the sky display window, the RA and DEC of the pointer are stored in the variables `$R1` and `$D1`. This command can be used to let the user define locations or regions of interest on the Kapa window. (Future addition: button, which does the same with the mouse buttons).

    306306Opihi has many commands to manipulate 2-D data (images). Images can be loaded from FITS files and mathematical operations applied to them. Various other operations, such as rebinning, shifting, rotating, and so forth are also available. Images can be displayed using the Kii image window. In an 8-bit visual, the image window has a dynamic colormap to allow the user to change the relationship between pixel value and the displayed color.
    307 * There are three colormaps which can be selected by pressing the middle three buttons on the bottom row. The PS button produces a PostScript file from the image.
    308 * The user can change the magnification and the position of the image with the mouse (left - recenter at cursor; middle - zoom out; right - zoom in).
    309 * There are four color overlays which the user can draw objects of different shapes (circles, boxes, lines) or draw a contour. The four buttons labeled R, G, B, Y turn on or off the display of the red, green, blue, and yellow overlays.
