My calc mess up horizontal lines
« on: April 14, 2011, 01:23:18 am »
I hav TI-84+ SE OS 2.43
It didn't happen before, but it suddenly started to happen.
What is wrong with that? Emulator doesn't have a problem with it.

calc screen:
-----------------------
|Text                       |
|       --------------- |   <--- "Horizontal" line
|                             |
|                             |
|                             |
-----------------------

Check to see which row it is and which hardware model you have. It could be that your display ram is corrupted. but if it is only in the OS you should be fine.

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

Oh maybe I didn't clarify it well enough.
That horizontal is the Draw command horizontal.
It should draw horizontal line across the whole screen, but some random reason, it won't.

Can those pixels be drawn normally or are they dead?

Have you tried reseting your ram yet. If that doesn't work try resending the OS. I have 2.43 on a 84+ SE too and have never had this problem.

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)

Odd.....I recommend this, testing in between to see if it was fixed:
1: GarbageCollect
2: RAM Clear
3: Full on Reset
4: Remove all batteries, including backup
5: Step 4 for at least 6 hours

Other than that, an OS reinstall might help.

Edit: My post count is now 1337 :P also, OmnomIRC doesn't like it, says I have 0 :P

Is it because you're drawing text over it?  You should draw the text first and then the horizontal line after.  There is a text flag somewhere to tell it if the bottom row of text should overwrite what's under it (or something like that) so its possible that got flagged on your calc.  A ram reset would restore everything though.

I tried resetting a lot but obviously it didn't help.
No, the line doens't overlap with text.
I think it started after installing zstart but i don't think it has to do with anything though.

So your graph screen is offset by a few coordinates, right? I presume that's why the line is messing up.
This has happened to me a few times, I set the Xmin to 0, but the left side of the screen is like -10. I think RAM Clearing could fix this, but I'm not sure...


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.
