Lua / Updating only one object on screen
« on: May 01, 2011, 06:34:53 pm »
Is there anyway to update a specific object on the screen instead of the entire screen. I've been wrangling with this one for most of the day and haven't been able to figure it out!

Cheers
Ingalls

EDIT: basically the problem I'm having is that I'm trying to fill up the whole screen with tiles for a game. The lua engine currently has to pause to be able to draw the tiles. Whenever I move the character tile, it has to redraw the whole screen just to move a single character tile. Is there anyway change the screen without completely refreshing it. Whenever on.paint(gc) is called it clears the screen and redraws...

Will the update for 3.0.1 fix compadibility or will you still have to write new drivers for it?

General Calculator Help / Installing Ti basic progs, on the nspire in 84 mode
« on: June 11, 2010, 09:30:18 pm »
Ok, my first question!

I have been using the ti computer link software to add programs to the nspire. That works perfectly.

Today I got my 84+SE keypad for the nspire.
I downloaded the TI connect software and installed a couple of flash applications from ticalcs archive.
I can install flash application without a probelm but when I try to install a ti basic program it says unable to communicate with calculator?

Anyone have a similiar problem? Just a newbie question what is the difference between a flash app and a tibasic program?

Thanks

Hi, I'm ingalls.
I've had a graphing calc for awhile and now my way around the ticalc file section pretty well. Especially the games section. I program in A couple of basic languages and am learning java.
