That's Microsoft's new Marketing tag line. Then, everyone in the audience replies: No one! :laugh: You are right and someone edit (I don't see that post now??) :confused: pointed that out just about the first thing. This is how Google makes Microsoft obsolete in every way. :rolleyes: or :cool:? Not sure. :)

I shouldn't be at all surprised if that's really what they think responsive design means. "Oh, it means that you see more if you make the window bigger!" yup. And the best part is that these **Great** **Upgrades** are forced on everyone.

Haha Win 3.1 Great stuff. Miss it so much. :(( Those were the days of .ini files and the desktop you couldn't use unless you had desktop dropper shell, which became popular just months before win95 released, then everyone forgot about it. desktop dropper[^]

Not for Hex or Binary input. But at least I didn't have to switch to another mode just for calculating something with decimals

I have been calculating the timing values for machine code routines recently and ran into that problem.

Didn't even know it had one, I always use Microsoft Math.

In scientific mode, click the UP ARROW button.

I'm trying to reply but my messages are being removed.

In scientific mode, click the UP ARROW button. All of the function buttons are replaced. x^2 becomes x^3, sin becomes arcsin, and log becomes ln.

[Neal8900]

Click the Up Arrow button.

Brilliant! An "up" arrow scrolls it UP or DOWN. Sure didn't see that one coming.

I'm glad others found the answer for you. I was going to suggest spinning up a Windows 7 VM so you could use the old calculator :-D

[pontellen]

Luckily, Calc.exe runs fine from early Windows versions if you like that format. I keep another apps folder for just these old app things. I also Like the old, and simpler, PHOTOED.exe. Note you may need a few dlls to go along with them.

God, who the hell is running that show. Is it hard to make dynamically resizeable buttons in UWP apps? Or is something like that against their GUI guidelines?

[raddevus]

Yeah, it's a mess out there in UWP, UWA, Win app dev. That's for sure.
