User Key: Custom Menu

[Eddie W. Shore]

You can assign a custom menu to a user key. The program TEMPLATES assigns a list of functions to the templates key (the key to the right of the Toolbox key, key 18 I believe).

When this program is completed, you call the custom menu by pressing [Shift], [Help] (User), [template key].

Choose a function or command. Whatever you choose will be inserted into the entry line. This user key works in program editing as well.

HP Prime Program: TEMPLATES

Note: I do not have a main “TEMPLATES” program block. In terms of making a custom menu like this, it is not necessary.

Code:


// a custom menu
// 2017 EWS

KEY K_Templ()
BEGIN
LOCAL str,lst,cst,ch;
// templates
lst:={"Function.ROOT()",
"Function.AREA()",
"Function.SLOPE()",
"Finance.TvmNbPmt()",
"Finance.TvmIPYR()",
"Finance.TvmPV()",
"Finance.TvmPMT()",
"Finance.TvmFV()"};


// choose list
cst:={"ROOT",
"AREA",
"SLOPE",
"N",
"I%YR",
"PV",
"PMT",
"FV"};

CHOOSE(ch,"Template",cst);

RETURN lst(ch);

END;
