Common User Keys setup and why?
Hello,
Thanks to Eddie Shores great instructions on setting up HP Prime user keys: http://edspi31415.blogspot.com/2013/09/h...-keys.html I have setup a few of my own 3 press User keys (and reason): - purge() ( lots of CAS variables I need to trash ) - f(x):= (generic start to save a CAS expression or equation - saves presses) - Function.F1:=f (saves f(x) to Function APP for plotting - saves presses) Please share a few of the User Keys you have setup (and reason). Maybe we can save each other time or perhaps the HP Prime team can integrate common ones into future firmware updates. Best, Carl |

See for instance my toggle for RPN/Textbook entry in http://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-404.html Cheers, Terje |

Thank you Terje. If I understand your code may be suitable for quickly changing calculator settings without having to click through menus? Cool.
Anyone else using user keys extensively on the Prime? |

All of the above are for use in HOME in RPN mode. In each case, you must press ENTER to complete the operation. If you cut and paste the above code, wherever the lower case i appears, it would need to be replaced with the italicized "i" character from the Prime keyboard (shift-2). (I tried to make it appear that way, but it appears that I am just not clever enough to figure out how to do so, so I gave up.) As for the reason for the shortcuts, I suppose it would be stubborn clinging to the past Dave - My mind is going - I can feel it. |

My basic user keys as follows: User Key programs: program name FactorExp KEY K_Power() BEGIN RETURN "factor()"; END; program name eXpandExp KEY K_Mul() BEGIN RETURN"expand()"; END; program name ZerosExp KEY K_2() BEGIN RETURN"zeros()"; END; program name CnVrtUnit KEY K_5() BEGIN RETURN "CONVERT()"; END; program name SolveExp KEY K_9() BEGIN RETURN "solve()"; END; K_Power: factor(Exp), program FactorExp K_Mul: expand(Exp), program eXpandExp K_2: zeros(Exp), program ZerosExp K_5: CONVERT(value_unit1,1_unit2), program CnVrtUnit K_9: solve(Exp,[Var]), program SolveExp define user functions: Name: Rd->Dg Function: (X*180)/π Desc: Convert radians to degrees Name: Dg->Rd Function: (X*π)/180 Desc: Convert degrees to radians Just getting started. |

RE: Common User Keys setup and why?
By program names, do you mean that each of those key definitions reside in their own, separate source file? To reduce the number of entries in the program catalog, you can combine all of them into a single file (or program name, as you seem to call them). For example, in a single source file named USERKEYS you can have:
Code:
So all your user keys basically live in the same file. Graph 3D | QPI | SolveSys |
