Digit grouping does not work in CAS - Michael de Estrada - 05-14-2015 01:24 PM

I have Digit Grouping set as 123,456.789, which works fine in Home, but omits the comma in CAS and displays as 123456.789

I just updated to the newest firmware version.

More on the grouping...

Storing a function with grouped numbers fails when editing values.

It's always been like this since digit grouping stuff was introduced. The CAS doesn't allow digit grouping display at this point yet as it caused other issues. It is definitely something we want to be able to support though.

Thanks. I've put this on the list of things to fix. It should not be using the "display" form of the equation when you go to edit. The display form puts in the separators which don't parse thus causing the issue.

To avoid this, you can edit the variable directly on the home screen, or manually remove those separators, or not use the separators.

Even with the separators removed during editing it fails to save the data, only get yellow exclamation mark when trying to save from the memory editor ("Input" screen).
