Grapher

Hi !
I can't get such results with my Grapher (French).
May I suggest
- look at System Preferences/Language and Text
- use Grapher Equation Palette for parentheses and greek letters.
Your GCX file seems to be a Grapher Example ; some bugs are possibles using those examples and I remade all Grapher 2.1 examples in new working windows (one in zip file attachment).
(screen shots in attachments)
Good luck YB24
