Subject: The Big Bad Bundle of TI-84 Plus C SE OS 4.0 Bugs
Posted: 03 Mar 2013 06:57:31 pm (GMT -5)
As you know, I have had my very own TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition for close to two weeks now. In using it, I have discovered a variety of bugs in the OS that I hope to pass along to TI. I also want to collect bug reports from you guys so I can submit a complete bug report package. I have rated bugs in order of severity, from [FATAL] through [ANNOYING] to [TRIVIAL]. If you guys report bugs that I can replicate, I will edit the first post. Also, if TI fixes bugs, I will mark them [FIXED]. Datestamps are the dates that bugs were reported/discovered or fixed.
[FATAL] Scrolling the BASIC editor is unbelievably slow. For [ALPHA][↑] and [ALPHA][↓], do not re-draw intermediate lines? (2/21/2013)
[FATAL] If you have insufficient Ends for your For/While/Repeat loops, and the graphscreen is active, your program will end with whatever was stored in Ans awkwardly overlaid on the graphscreen. (3/3/2013)
[ANNOYING] Setting 0→Ymin:1→ΔY incorrectly sets Ymax to 165 instead of 164. (3/3/2013)
[ANNOYING] Although the Menu( command accepts 9 options + 1 title (instead of the old 7 options + 1 title), the last two options appear as ??, and choosing those options causes an ERR:LABEL. (2/23/2013)
[ANNOYING] [ALPHA]-scrolling the BASIC editor scrolls by 7 lines, not 9. (2/26/2013)
[TRIVIAL] The ALPHA-ZOOM (F3) matrix-entry Shortcut menu is baffling to beginners. (3/2/2013)
