Hello everyone, I'm very new to this world but having fun discovering all the potential of this calculator and app. 
I recently installed the skin by Mueck named " Mueck_FPm" particularly because I was interested in the various features for electronics and engineering. Following the guide in the .zip file, I also installed the provided program with the constants (and checked that it is working correctly).

What I don't understand is how to get the other "programs" (or maybe functions) to work. such as "dB", "2^x", etc.
If I try executing them I get only "Label not found".

I hope this is the correct place where to ask this sort of questions, in case it isn't please let me know where to post it. Moreover, due to lack of knowledge in the topic, it isn't even clear to me if this issue is related only to the skin or to Free42 in general.

Thanks to anyone willing to answer, to the developer of the app and to MickM for making the skin!

Well - that's because the developer is a dope and he packaged the skin incorrectly. I'll fix that in the next day or so and submit everything to Thomas. As a workaround, delete the program bundle (which can simply be done by deleting one of the programs in it e.g. ":CONST" (by using ⇧CLEAR → CLP) and then use the program file Mueck-Desktop from the skin Mueck_FPd instead. 

I also recently upgraded my phone from an iPhone 13 mini to an iPhone 17 and I can see the graphics needs some additional tweaking so I'll fix that while I'm at it.

Yikes! I meant the SKIN developer (me), not you… Sorry for the unintended implication. So much for my lousy sense of humor 🤦

FYI - the corrected skins are now available on Thomas's website. Sorry for the hassle...
