Flags Shortcut
Hello!

How can I access directly flag 117, without use arrow key down a lot of times?

For flag 95, for example, I can do:

1 - enter menu flag [MODES] [FLAGS]
2 - press [9] and it send me to flag 90
3 - so press 4 times [DOWN ARROW].


But for flag 117, what can I do?

RE: Flags Shortcut
[MODE] [FLAGS] [up] [LS-up] [down]

I personally have -117 SF in my 'STARTUP' program, and always leave it set.

Hmmm... that puts me on flag 115. Can the number of flags vary machine to machine?

RE: Flags Shortcut
Hello!

I found some things..

In flags list you can do:

This command skips the cursor to the last flag.
[Image: rs.jpg] + [Image: asd.jpg]


This command skips the cursor to the first flag
[Image: rs.jpg] + [Image: asu.jpg]

This command skips the cursor to the flag 90.
Just press key [9],
when in menu flags

Also press [5], [6], [7] to skip the cursor to flag 50, 60, 70, etc.
Does not work when press 11.


This command skips the cursor 10 backward items in the list of flags
[Image: ls.jpg] + [Image: asu.jpg]

This command skips the cursor 10 forward items in the list of flags
[Image: ls.jpg] + [Image: asd.jpg]

Using
117 SF
or even make a program
≪117 SF ≫

is also valid.

Aha! Good catch! Yes, it depends on which font your flag browser is using! I assumed that everybody uses FONT8, but if you use FONT7 or FONT6, or the minifont, using LS-up will jump a different number of lines. *sigh*

More precisely, it jumps one screenful of lines, but the number of lines depends on which font the flag browser is using, which you can set at the top of the MODE DISP screen. There are 4 font sizes that the flag browser can use: FONT8, FONT7, FONT6, and the minifont (which is selected by setting flag -90).

If you want it to have any effect on the menus, use system flag number -117 (negative), not user flag number 117 (positive).

Of course, should have thought of that! I use the minifont so it should have been obvious.

Thanks Joe! Smile
