I just want to mention though that on my calculator since version 2017 0710 to Beta v3, when I type on the command line in Home HFormat:=3 then check with "Shift Symb" it does not change to Engineering. However when I type AFormat:=3 followed by "Shift Symb" the mode becomes 'Scientific". ...

hi Bernard, I'm using beta 2017 12 11 (13217), but for ENG format I'm not using AFormat or HFormat, simply I use our program manually (with User defined keys) or going in Home Settings and change the format there...
Other people in the Forum sure will be so kind to explain the difference between AFormat and HFormat.
I don't remember just now their differences...
The key definition (1) should manage those differences, to avoid to stop functioning in a next version of the OS.

EDIT:
the simple code:
Code:
KEY K_1()
// use Shift Help 1
// HFormat: 0 standard, 1 fixed, 2 scientific, 3 engineering
// 4 floating, 5 rounded
BEGIN
 if HFormat == 0 then
  HFormat:=3;
 else
  HFormat:=0;
 end;
 return "";
END;
seems to work well both in CAS and in Home, but, as you said, apparently it should *not* work for the change in the format numeration...
I don't know why, sorry... Anyway, it works and better so ;-)
