Custom Menu

[Wes Loewer]

You are not alone in wishing for a custom menu. The soft key touch menu at the bottom of the screen is just begging to be used as a custom menu. It could be toggled on/off by a menu option on the Menu key.

This is super important if someone is trying to work quickly.

I used to give my ti-89 students a custom menu program that had all the functions that we commonly used in the class. It was very useful, but it required writing a simple program, which few of my students knew how to do. One of the features I really liked about the previous hp calculators (48/49/50) was the simplicity of creating a custom menu. You just created a list containing the desired commands, such as {COMB PERM !}, and stored it with the name CST, and viola! you had your custom menu.

I'm still hoping that someday this exceedingly useful feature will be reintroduced.
