Mac Grapher -slope fields for 1st order implicit

I'm trying to get a slope field for y'=x^2+y^2-1 with an initial condition of y(0)=0

I can graph this, but how do you enter it to get a slope field?

any help will greatly be appreciated.

Hi Daniel and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...

That is Greek to me, but have you tried MacGrapher forums?

Here's one; http://forums.macrumors.com/search.php?do=process

Copy/Paste this into the Google Search Bar: a slope field for y'=x^2+y^2-1 with an initial condition of y(0)=0

And try Googling: Slope Field

I've searched over macrumors, google, and didnt seem to fine anything.

Ive Emailed Arizona Software for a guide(they haven't go back to me yet) since grapher is essentially curvus pro x.

I think i got it, looked over a guide from mathematica

Δ{x,y}={1,x^2+y^2-1} where those are 2x1matrices and not 1x2
