problem with the HP prime´s terminal - pedroHPsp - 03-04-2017 05:28 PM

Hello everybody

I am working in a beam dimensioning program that gives a very big list of results (geometrical proprieties of the beam, proprieties of the different materials, curvatures for different bending moments... ) in order to make it practical I decided to print those results with the units and a little explanation using print commands to read the solution on the terminal. the problem is that the program is so long that i loose the first lines of text because the terminal seems to be full. I tried to pause the program using the WAIT command but i can't scroll because in the moment I touch the screen it triggers the rest of the program. Ideas?

Build a string with output and create a note or safe as app text file?

The terminal screen is limited to show up to 2040 chars, including line breaks. And that is why sometimes you might be missing information!
What mark4flies suggests is probably the best work around.
