Title: A fullscreen image on a Nspire Color prototype?!!!
Post by: critor on December 26, 2012, 03:58:45 pm
Let's play a game tonight - instead of giving you the news and the photos inside it, I give you the photo - try to guess what the news could be! ;)

(http://tiplanet.org/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=13&image_id=1761)

So a fullscreen image on a TI-Nspire Color prototype, which should be stuck to development OSes.

Here is the original image:

Question: how did I do? ;):P

How? You transmitted it to the calc :P
BTW, awesome :P

this may be a dumb question, but is the NspireColor a prototype for the CX, or for a future version of the nspire?

I never knew about the Nspire color prototype.

OK, let me add something :

It's not done in Lua using the full screen tricks ;)


(Edit : The Nspire Color were the prototype versions of the CX series)

wait, the prototype supportes nativley assembly?
Or did you turn the alpha-channel of the menu to 0? (or set it as graph background and disable axis etc.)

Just try on a normal TI-Nspire CX and tell me if you manage to do this and how. ;)

TI-Nspire Color is the name of the TI-Nspire CX prototypes.


I never knew about the Nspire color prototype.

Then you missed some news two months ago:

No, it doesn't support assembly natively.

No, I didn't do anything in order to trick a fullscreen display from within the OS. (I know such a thing is (was?) possible with Lua)

it doesn't work if i place .tns after it, so i guess there should be a different way of doing it :)

Did you ndless it? Or reflash the boot code somehow?

or for a future version of the nspire?
BTW, does anyone know if the Nspire series will be continued?

I don't think TI announced anything, but who knows? I mean, who would have expected a TI 84pcse?

A new super awesome photo viewing program?

I'm not sure, but it's probable.

I think they will, but I don't think they will continue to sell them everywhere, since some stores (such as Staples over here) have put the CX in clearance and had no Clickpad/Touchpad models for almost 2 years. Best Buy still had $199.99 TI-Nspire CX models, though.

Name one place you don't think the new model will be sold.

See my previous post. Staples (at least in Quebec area) has discontinued the CX (the newest Nspire model) only one year after it came out. And I'm unsure if any new Nspire model is even coming out anyway.

No store in my city sells graphing calculators anymore, whereas two years ago sold 68k, Z80 and Nspire calcs. You can only buy them on the internet over here.

You stuck a CX inside a prototype case? That or the prototype didn't had limitations on the title bar.

Over here most stores that has calcs sell the 83+, while Staples has the 84+, 84+SE (at same price as 84+) and 89T and Casio PRIZM. All TI calcs are much more expensive in Canada than USA too, while the PRIZM is the exact same price in both countries.

I'm definitively thinking that the prototype supported full screen images, but it was removed later.

You either somehow reflashed everything (as lkj said) or somehow Ndlessed it is my guess.
