WP43 Alternative key layout --> C43

[H2X]

Perfectly OK with me!

Is ≈I an alternative? Just playing around now...

[Jaymos]

Yes, ≈I is an interesting option, especially since the 43S compatible ROUNDI will still exist - the key icon can be what we like.

RI does sort of loose its meaning after an hour or two where the ≈I does not. I like it.

Any takers?

[RND], [RI] or [≈I] ?

Here a mockup to see.

Maybe another alternative, given the context of other labels (e.g. [a b/c] and [.d]):

[a.]

I do not like that one.

Can't we have "->Int" ?

. b/c could become "->b/c"

With this process, one of my drives is to shorten the text above the [Σ+] button, and [->INT] is not shorter than [RND] or [RNDI]. If we had a short label on blue maybe, but there is is not short, i.e. [a b/c] is there. (Your last post refers: I do not want to change the [a b/c] as there is already another mode [d/c] being toggled by this button (Standard 43S functionality) and I do not want to depart from the 43S manual (p146/320) in this instance.)

So, I am targeting the shorter [RI], or [≈I], I could include here, or based on your idea also [->I].

What I do like about the [≈I] of Haakon, is the fact that it is graphically indicating an approximation of a kind.
The arrow [->I] is definitely an option, depending on more comments.

[RAPo]

but how can something be approximately an int? Either is or it isn't
I vote for "->I".

Another option would be to have ->N, with N the mathematical notion for natural numbers.
I know you won't want to change ab/d, but in this vain it could become ->Q with Q the mathematical notation for the rationals.

Maybe a glyph for the arrow to save space? I agree that the concept is more of a conversion than an approximation.
