I just want to clarify this: 34, 26, 25, and 24 are the key codes for the arrow keys on the TI 84+CSE right?
Does anyone have any tips for saving something that is on the home screen using basic? I am trying to make a drawing program. To clarify: I am not doing this program on the graph screen, though I may switch it to the graph screen if needed.
Sure, just store it into a matrix, or just a list that has the object's X and Y location stored into it.
Can somebody please help me with some code to change the TI-84+ CSE brightness? I'm currently making an auto-brightness program.

Can you please give me an example? Also, would it be just 1 matrix? or would it be 2?
what is this Wabbitemu I am alway hearing about in other topics?

It's a graphing calculator emulator. If you'll just Google it you can find out more about it. It's pretty much in all the top search results.

Since it's the homescreen, I'd just recommend using a 26*10-character String variable. That also makes recalling the contents of the homescreen as simple as Output(1,1,StrN).

That sounds a lot easier than Mateo's suggestion. My only problem is finding out how to make it automatic. Can you store all of the text on the screen into a variable are something like that?
No, you can't. You'd have to build up the string yourself, by storing a character into the string every time you displayed a character on the homescreen.
Ah, well I guess I just have to go wit Mateo's suggestion because I need it to be automated. I assume that can be automated right?
Would I do this?

Code:
 
Output(A,B,Str0
A->[A]
B->[B]
No, in order to store the elements in the matrix, you would store the varibles like this:


Code:
A->[A](1,1


This stores the value of A into the first column and first row of the [A] matrix.
So,

Code:

While 1
Output(A,B,Str0
Str0->[A](,A,B

There is other code above the Output.
What? That code is nonsensical:
1) The While has no End
2) You can only store numbers in matrix elements
3) Where do you define A and B?
4) (, is not valid syntax.
Oh wow, I was in a hurry. But, I didn't know that you can only store numbers in a matrix. Sorry.
I can't seem to figure this out.
Wouldn't the variables be converted to their numerical equivalents? Assuming he defined those, of course.
Would it just be simpler if I optimize the program for the graph screen and use a command to store the screen? I know there are commands for that. is there one called stopic or newpic?
So, I have finished my drawing program. But, I want to add one more future. I want to have the artist be able to add different colored backgrounds. Is there any way to do that? I think it would add a cool aspect to the program. Good Idea Bad Idea ?
Use the BackgroundOn color function, with the color # at the end (like BackgroundOn 14)
