For 15C can momentarily show ALL x-register?

Hi folks,

For the 15C, is it possible to momentarily show the x-register in ALL format, when in ENG or SCI display formats? I don't want to keep having to go to FIX format to see what the number looks like in plain mode.

From the HP-15C Owner’s Handbook p. 60 about Mantissa Display :
When you want to view the full 10-digit mantissa of a number in the X-register, press [f] CLEAR [PREFIX]. To keep the mantissa in the display, hold the [PREFIX] key down.

Hi. Yes thanks I also saw that but it’s not what I need. It doesn’t show the decimal point. What I want is to show 0.0005 when the engineering format says 500.00 x 10-6

There is no other temporary display than the mantissa display. The only way to display the x-register in FIX format is with FIX.
