[WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - fhub - 04-29-2012 Trying a few key-combinations today I saw that [STO][STO] and [RCL][RCL] are still free, and they would be very comfortable (and quick) shortcuts. Any ideas for what operations these could be used?
I would have an idea, but unfortunately these functions are not yet implemented: ;-)
And a short remark for Marcus:

Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Marcus von Cube, Germany - 04-29-2012 f normally signals that a shortcut address is active. These are not available for STO or RCL, just for LBL and XEQ or GTO but this is only known when the key is released. The f display is a glitch I might take care of later.
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Walter B - 04-29-2012 We avoided meaningful key repetitions as far as possible. Our users get older, and accidental double key presses may become a problem ;-)
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - fhub - 04-29-2012 Quote:Ok, it's not really a problem.
And why is 360 changed to RAD when pressing [CPX]?
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - fhub - 04-29-2012 Quote:True for our bodies, but our brains are getting younger and better the more we use the WP34s - its huge featureset is indeed 'food for the brain'! ;-) Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Walter B - 04-29-2012 True for sure. Now please press the keys with your brain alone ;-)
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Walter B - 04-29-2012 This may be a heritage of a very early project stage where we were thinking of switching to RAD for complex calculations since it's the 'natural angular mode' there.
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - fhub - 04-29-2012 Yes, this may be the reason. I was simply wondering because I can't remember that I've ever seen this before (in older releases).
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Paul Dale - 04-29-2012 All complex operations are done in radians mode. It has always been this way. The RAD indicator should always have turned on -- I believe this has always worked properly but could be mistaken.

More useful than IR printing. ;-) Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Paul Dale - 04-30-2012 Quote: It is working quite well. The three inch (75mm) electrodes that need to be inserted into your brain before you can operate the calculator are uncomfortable during use and very painful to insert and remove -- we are going to recommend a permanent surgical implantation instead. Everyone please form an orderly line :-) - Pauli

Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Gerry Schultz - 04-30-2012 I'd rather try to use my forehead to push the buttons. It sounds less painful!
Re: [WP34s] 2 possible shortcuts - Walter B - 05-01-2012 Don't you underestimate: getting such a pointed forehead may become pretty painful!
