Text Tools (includes TI-83+ BASIC Scrollbar)
« on: October 02, 2006, 06:43:00 am »
I've been getting into making small TI-83+ TI-BASIC programs with cool effects lately.  Anyway, it lets the user scroll down some text.  It's almost finished.  I still need to optimize it though.  Here's a screenshot of it running on a regular TI-83+:

I'm wasn't sure if it should go here, but just to be safe.....

It just seems like there isn't much to talk about after I post it.  But, I guess it could go somewhere else.  I'll move it though :)smile.gif.

This scrollbar program was featured in a suite of programs that perform effects on text...Text Tools (soon, or maybe not so soon, to be availible at http://www.ticalc.org).  It is in 100% TI-83+ TI-BASIC, except for a little bonus program that I included that is in assembly that inverses text.  Here are some screenshots:

Text Tools 1.1 is now availible!  Here's a new screenshot of a new effect it can produce:

I call it "wave" effect, because the text is put into kind of a wave shape.  I used the trigonometric sine function (sin() on the TI-83+) for this effect.  I also fixed a small problem in the spiral effect program.  

I'll post a download link soon for Text Tools 1.1, because it is too large to be put into an attachment.
