Possible graphic/font bug? Message #1 Posted by Han on 2 Oct 2013, 2:17 p.m. Could someone test the following on their real calculator? In CAS mode, bring up any menu with more than 6 items. On my calculator, all the shortcut numbers appearing on the left of each menu item appear normal, except for the 6-th item. Sometimes I see a black square. After trying to find this character in the char catalogue (I never did find it and gave up partway through all the Chinese (?) characters), I noticed it switched to an ellipsis. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm trying to figure out if this is a result of something else I did, or if it is a minor bug. Edit: First pic shows menu; second pic shows clock likewise glitched by weird font Edited: 2 Oct 2013, 2:45 p.m.

Re: Possible graphic/font bug? Message #2 Posted by Tim Wessman on 2 Oct 2013, 2:49 p.m., in response to message #1 by Han Definitely not anything I've ever seen...very strange. It appears the "6" character in the current mini font cache has become corrupted (see the clock) . Restarting the calc (on-apps) should restore it just fine I would anticipate. If it doesn't, I really have no clue what could be happening. TW Edited: 2 Oct 2013, 2:50 p.m.
