You can edit everything about your number line.

Of course, before you can create this edited vertical number line, you first need to create a Basic Vertical Number Line. If you have not already made a basic vertical number line, look at that page first and then come back and learn about editing it to create this number line�..


How to Edit any Number Line

Once you have created a number line, all you have to do to edit it is Double Click on it. When you do, the Figure Editor box with your number line will open up again.



Choose Edit Grid from the Grid Menu and the Grid Properties box will open again. Play around with re-setting the properties.





 

TIP: Each time you change something in the grid properties box you can see the change immediately in the figure editor by clicking on the apply button.
