Is there any correspondence between the menu pages within a directory and the HOME directory? For example, when you are on the second menu page (i.e. you would normally have to press NXT once to get to the second menu page) within a subdirectory, does using UPDIR preserve the menu page (also second page of the HOME directory)? Is this what you are trying to demonstrate in the video?

If I do Letf- Shift VAR (i.e. UPDIR), I would expect the page 1 VAR menu of the upper directory to be shown, but (if the upper directory has more than 1 page for the VAR menu) page 2 is shown instead of page 1. I would expect page 1 as this has been the usual behavior of the calc (it is, when I disable USER mode). Same strange issue when going into a subdir. If I'm in page 2 of the VAR menu in a given directory, and go into a subdir with a VAR menu with more than 1 page, I end up seeing page 2 of the VAR menu in the subdir instead of page 1. It's odd, because if I type UPDIR and press ENTER (instead of Left- Shift VAR), it works as one would expect. It is strange also that having << UPDIR >> stored in a variable inside a given directory, when pressing the softkey corresponding to that variable, it would also show that odd behavior. I have removed all key assignments to no avail. ¿Any ideas?

I am unable to duplicate this behavior. What ROM version are you using? (I'm using ROM 2.15; type VERSION to see your ROM version.) I created two pages of directories, each containing two pages of variables to test this but could not duplicate the behavior. Are you using any stack or shell replacements? What libraries are installed (perhaps some of these might be causing conflicts?). I checked to see if the soft keys were handled differently in user mode, but it appears that [left-shift][VAR] just makes a call to the UPDIR command.

ROM 2.09 I deleted some variables from HOME and works normally now. I'm using JHM's "Save unlimited command lines and menus" seen here: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.hp48/browse_thread/thread/c084b23bdf1e3952/389914739c4c2876?lnk=gst&q=unlimited+command+line+entries#389914739c4c2876 Deleted several variables related to this. Although I don't want to lose it...I love that clever invention. I think it is something related to the "alphaENTER" and "betaENTER" programs. |
