I've got some basic programing knowledge but there's something i cant discover from my own. Well the problem i have is this one:

Ti-92 Plus has 2 different font types: a big and a smaller one. The second ones appers for example in the Home Screen at the bottom or when u write this on a program:

Dialog
Title "insert text here"
Text "insert text here"
EndDlog

So i would like to see the same kind of font type in the TEXT STRING and in the TILE SCREEN. I dont know how i can use the small font type in the TEXT STRING.

Can someone help me please?
Thanks.

ugh, 92+? I don't think anyone around here has one of those. Most I've seen were 89s.

I looked on google a bit and all I could find just confused me..

Look at the bottom of this site:
http://www.technicalc.org/examples/en/html...stom-menus.html

They show an exmaple of making a dialog, one set of screenshots has the title and text the same size, the others different.

I think this is just the difference between the 89 and the 92, and that it's done by the OS itself, so if you want smaller text font, buy an 89!

I mean the text in the bottom, where is written "MAIN" , "RAD AUTO", "FUNC 2/30", for example. And i know theres a why because i've seen programs made with this kind of font - check this page and see - http://litosnaweb.no.sapo.pt/modulo_7.htm.
Thanks!

Looks like some kind of "tooltip" option? Maybe look around for that, I assume there's a manual with all the commands and that you have it or can get it.

Maybe download and read some of those programs?

You can't control which font is used where in Basic.

I know someone did this with a TI-83+, it was a link chat program. It really sucked but it was cool how half the screen was the graph, and the other half was the text console.

[MODE] Horizontal should do that for you. Full returns to normal.
