Currently the keyboard has a key marked 'X' for multiply (math version) but when you press it you get '*' on the screen (computer version). Pick one or the other and update the key and the font to match.

I'd like to access the debug header, do you have a way to non-destructively open the case?

The existing STLs appear to be for the n0100. When I printed top.stl it doesn't mate with the n0110 bottom case. It appears that there are some structural changes, such as the stiffeners, that aren't compatible.

The top.stl print compared to the n0110 top, showing the different placement of the stiffeners:

The top.stl print compared to the n0110 bottom, showing the slots for the stiffeners not matching:

Would you be willing to release the n0110 STLs?

I think it is great that you can see many lines of computation but for the calculate function I would really like a much larger font size. Look at existing calculators, digit sizes of 6mm vs the current 3mm would help readability a lot. Having it be adjustable would be even better.

That way the space bar would be at the bottom center, like most (PC/phone) keyboards.

I love the flexibility here but the thing is first and foremost a calculator. Ideally if you click it 'on' it should be ready to calculate. It is great that it will stay in the calculator app if you turn off and then on while you are in the calculator app, but I would really appreciate a setting that always brought it up in calculate if it wasn't in some other app before. That will probably be my first PR.

There! I've said it! I can barely see most of the orange and light grey characters on the keyboard, both on the real device and on the online simulator.

Maybe this repo could be updated with some updates since 2020 :)

For python, having the '^' character displayed on the keyboard would help finding it quicker.

The clearance for the plastic on the bottom edge of the microUSB port may need to be expanded somewhat. The locking "teeth" used on many microUSB cables dig into the plastic here. An extra 0.3-0.5mm should be sufficient. See attached photo.

Am I correct to assume that the files provided here (as is) are only for the newest release of the calculator?
I want to tweak my 'old' calculator so I can lend it out to students (I was thinking of a magenta/pink version for lending).

Could you publish the older version?

This icon is supposed to be a toolbox. However it also looks like a printer icon, which is what I and jacobly0 thought it was (and probably many others).

If you want to keep the toolbox, angling the edges like this should be enough to not mistake the handle for a sheed of paper.

However, since you've mentioned you base your design on smartphones, why not use the menu icon from android? It would be more recognizable.

Will the source design files be included eventually? I mean the SolidWorks/Inventor files

Can you also supply the silkscreen for the keys? I would like to print them with other color instead of the light-grey and orange, since the orange color almost disappear with dimmed warm light.
