I Inputting into a Text Line

Use a text line to input alphanumeric characters, expressions, etc.

S Inputting characters and expressions as text

1. Move the cursor to a text line.

• While the cursor is in a text line, “TEXT” will be displayed for the F3 function menu item.

This indicates that text input is enabled.

Text line cursor

 key menu becomes “TEXT”.

• “CALC” will be displayed for the F3 function menu item if the cursor is located in a

calculation line. Pressing

(CALC) will change the calculation line to a text line.

• If the cursor is located in a strip, use

D and A to move to the cursor to a text line.

• On the function menu, selecting {INS} and then {TEXT} will insert a new text line above the

line where the cursor is currently located.

2. Input the text or expression you want into the text strip.

• See “Text Line Input and Editing Operations” described below.

S Text Line Input and Editing Operations

• You can input up to 255 bytes of text into a single text line. Text in the text line wraps

automatically to fit inside the display area (Word Wrap Function). Note, however, that
numeric expressions and commands do not wrap.*

Scroll arrows (

;) will appear on the

left and right sides of the calculation line to let you know some of the calculation does not fit
within the calculation line display area. In this case, you can use the left and right cursor keys
to scroll the calculation.

• The

(Aja) function key toggles between upper-case and lower-case input. This function

is available only while alpha text input is enabled. See page 2-7 for details. The text line
cursor is while upper-case input is selected, and during lower-case input.

• Press

U to input a carriage return into text. No symbol will be displayed for a carriage

return.

• If the text is wrapped into multiple lines, pressing the

key will delete the line where the

cursor is currently located only. The part of the text that is wrapped to other lines will not be
deleted.

• Always use natural input (page 1-10) to input an expression into a text line.

Also, any word that includes the symbol “ ’ ”, “ { ” or “ ”, which are input using the menu

that appears when you press

(CHAR), does not wrap.
