C47 Bug Reports
Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
It’s probably the last digit playing tricks on us with the trailing zeroes. I’ll log it, find and fix it.

Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
TRG: this menu is needed, for DM42 (no bezel) operation. TRG is a blue menu which is not on DM42.
It was recently added and I missed it in the manual, since updated of course (see screenshot). We are in the development phase, after all. TRG is present twice in CAT.MENUS because there are actually two TRG menus in the code at the moment, one for C47, one for future use.

Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
I'm not sure you understood me.
I understand that the TRG menu is necessary. I noticed that it is present twice on the keyboard without apparent gain for this second occurrence.
We can get TRG directly by g‑[+/−] or in two steps by f‑[+/−] then g‑[F6]
Another oddity is that there is a second page called TRG... but instead of being a real second page, it is a submenu.
Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
We like choice, so there are alternative routes to lots of functions anyway.
It is precisely because TRG is on a g-shift that we added it to the menu, because some users may not have the overlay.
Or they are still using the C43 layout, which does not have TRG on a key anyway (like I do until we have the new “official” overlay for C47).
TRG… accesses an existing menu we wanted to reuse, that is why it is not page 2 of TRG (at the moment).

Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
Another occurrence of the same bug:
DISP SIG 03
g-[+/−] for TRG
0,5 (ENTER or not) then [⇒MULπ] → 0,500 000 0π
Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
Likely not a bug, but I wonder if it’s intended:
RCL works for I, but does not work for J, K, and L.
Same for STO.
If I may suggest a change in behavior that would be seen as an improvement on my part:
When a number is shown in full precision with SHOW, it would be nice if the [←] key did the same thing as [EXIT] rather than erasing the number.
I get screwed every time!

Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
Interestingly, STO/RCL I, J, K, L works for me (in C43 mode) ; note register L is the LastX register.

Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
OK. Here’s the problem:
I have ASSigned new functions to SIN, COS, TAN.
If I cancel them, it’s working again.
Re: C43/C47 Bug Reports
I'm sorry to come back to this, but I'd like to offer another point of view.Jaymos wrote: ↑Wed Mar 15, 2023 2:43 pmNow, unofficial way: You show a double arrow [=>H.MS] as well. This is dead code not yet removed. I suspect that you found the capitalized double arrow [=>H.MS] in the catalog only. That function was discontinued, removed from the menus and was forgotten in the CAT! That option works the same though but is not needed as it has no new function.
Another bug found: I will remove the dead item.
⇒H.MS is not dead code to remove. It is a function that should be fixed to work as expected.
Considering that ⇒D.MS tag 2.30 to 2°30′0.00″ (from X) then ⇒H.MS should tag 2.30 to 2:30:00 (from X).
Both of these functions are inverses of .ms⁻¹ (untag).
Currently the only way to tag 2.30 to 2:30:00 is to do a double operation:
2.30 [⇒D.MS] → 2°30′0.00″ [.ms] → 2:30:00
Clearly there is a function missing to do this in one step.
