Z Periodic Table (tableau periodique) - StephenG1CMZ - 01-12-2016 07:56 AM Following last weeks announcement in the media that the discovery of new elements has been confirmed, I thought I would make a simple periodic table. This one fits on one page, unlike some that need scrolling. And it works on the Android emulation. There is some limited interaction, but the user interface does need more work. Element names and symbols are case sensitive. A guide to the user interface: The Menu presents 3 options...but these names are just there to act as a Help, to remind you of the available keypresses. If you tap them you will see "Please use keypad"... If you tap the screen you will see " please use keypad" (there is no touch interface to select an element). You will probably need to press On and re-run the program. Instead, tap the relevant key on the keypad: Symb: gives a list of symbols (Eg Au) Num: gives a list of atomic numbers (eg 12) Enter: let's you search for either an element or its symbol. Note that the search is case-sensitive : symbols begin with an Upper case. : elements are entirely lower case. : exact matches only So you can search for "gold" or "Au" but not "go" Update: Remember - use the keypad, not the Drawmenu. After you see the "use the keypad" message, the program does not always recover. Restart the program. There is much room for improvement... Version 2 uses the new Input syntax and works on FW8151 FW10077 and Android. Also fixed a bug with my For loop going 1 beyond the actual number of elements, and some user interface improvements. Version 2.1 has been rewritten to use CHOOSE lists rather than keypad menus... This seems both easier and the program a little more reliable. The element names are in English, francais and Polskie, but menus have yet to be internationalised.
