I'm trying to install the trial version for Mathcad 15, but get an error upon entering my account credentials.
Hi, Then I overwritten values for t1 and t2 and test variable result was updated with the new values of t1 and t2: Then I disabled t1 and t2, but the test variable remained unchanged. Why t1 and t2 did not took value 2 and update the test variable result with 4?
PTC software download does not have a download button for me. I have purchased Mathcad Prime Student Edition 11, but I cannot download it.
Hello All: I have encountered some strange behavior with the new "vec()" function in Mathcad Prime 11. An example of this is shown in the screen capture below. In trying to plot a complex function (the volume of a sideways cylindrical tank), the old way with a "range" for the h in this example gives the correct results (determined independently of Mathcad). However, the h created by the vec() function yields very different results in this instance. I tried other simpler formulas [e.g, sqrt(2*R*h-h2)] and the results were satisfactory and both results matched. But as I started fleshing out the equation with more terms, the behavior diverged as per the example below. The other terms, when isolated, produce satisfactory results. Only the term shown below in V2(h) presents strange behavior. More still, expressing V2(h) differently (e.g., algebraically rewriting the expression will create still different but, likewise, still w
Hi reference topic: Solved: reloading Mathcad in new windows 11 computer - PTC Community I'm upgrading machines to win 11 and trying to re-install prime 3.0 on those machines with a new correct licence file. Installs but cant apply licence. Machines with Mathcad already on when upgraded to 11 work fine. Any feedback welcome. We have perpetual licence.
Hello All, Has the Math software Wolfram become a competitor to Prime in terms of Engineering value? In Prime going back 10 years or so, I used simple loops to get my calculations done.Which these loops are basic to Mathcad and Prime.I have not known Prime for a programming language rater symbolic programming for loops etc.I have come across Wolfram very often when I need something to calculate on the spot using the internet. Thru that I have recently learnt that it is quite impressive.You can set a grid worksheet and have its color light green too like Prime/Mathcad sheets.So, for me that is some cause of an attraction or pull to Wolfram.Especially considering the price.And it is loaded with a full programming language. Tell me am I missing the serious engineer deep thoughts on this?Your comments are appreciated. Kind Regards,Karl Bogha.
I have tried several times to have the link emailed to me to download the free version of Mathcad but I am not receiving the email. I have checked the spam folders and there is no email.
Good AfternoonI installed version 11 as a trial version but unfortunately the files I'm trying to open are an old version 14 Could you send me a link to a later version that would open these? I had trouble getting the link for version 11 in the email address.Much appreciated ThanksRick
Hi everyone,I have a plot in Mathcad and would like to export the underlying data to a .txt file.What is the recommended way to extract the data from a graph and save it as a text file?Thanks in advance for your help!
Hello! Is it possible to do the following:I have two matrices, say 5x1, but want to perform computation using 4 elements of both matrices. In other words I want to omit one row (value) form the computation. The result will be vectorized. Best regards,Sergey
I want to make use of the 30 days trial. After installation the license wizard requires the product code. Where can I find that?
Hello!. Please, help with the following issue: I have defined two matrices and use them in equation where they are being multiplied. By some reason I get only one value instead of an array. If I define the one matrix ("k") as a variable, then the computation goes on, as it should, and I get an array. What I am doing wrong?
I have a copy of Mathcad 14 (with the original disk and receipts). My computer died and I had to move it to a new computer. During the install, it goes to log into PTC to get the license (after entering the product code), but returns errors saying I don't have permission. I've got the license file from the old computer, but since it is tied to that computer, it doesn't work on the new one. I've gotten no response from PTC when asking for help. FWIW, it's on a brand new Win 11 computer.
It would be very useful if Mathcad supported a column-based or region-based document layout for engineering calculation sheets. In traditional calcpads or formal calculation reports, calculations are often arranged into clear vertical sections, for example: "Reference / Code clauses / Assumptions""Calculations""Results / Output"At the moment, Mathcad provides a single continuous canvas with free placement of text and math regions. While the grid helps with alignment, there is no way to define fixed columns, regions, or containers that keep content aligned consistently. A typical example:On one horizontal “row”:Left: a short text description (e.g. Bending stress)Middle: the actual formula and calculationRight: the applicable code referenceCurrently this requires manually placing and adjusting multiple text and math regions, which becomes difficult to maintain and easily breaks when edits are made. It would be beneficial to have something like this implemented as it&n
Hi, I created a file in Mathcad Prime 8.0 and I'm sharing with my client who is using Mathcad Prime 7.0. But he's unable to open due to compatibility.Can anyone help me out please on how to create a file that can be opened in Mathcad Prime 7.0 as well.
I have been using Mathcad 14 for many years. After upgrading to a new PC, I tried to reinstall Mathcad 14, but the licensing process failed. The website returned the following message:The remote server returned an error: 403 Forbidden.Could you please assist me in resolving this issue?

Hi everyone, I'd like to ask whether it is possible to hide the display of the z-expression/z-axis in a 3D plot? I have attached a picture and marked the area in green to show what exactly I want to hide. Thanks for your thoughts!Uwe
Given how little versions changed, it has frustrated us all that we cannot save in older versions. I suspect this is largely a marketing ploy to force upgrades and new purchases. And, probably controlled by a simple version check. So after a little thinking, digging and experimenting, I have been able to open 5.0 files in 4.0. I haven't played with it much and I'm sure it's limited - but it might help someone someday. With the new version file a.) Change the extension to .zip b.) Unzip to a folder c.) Delete app.xml in docProps folder With the older version i.) Save any file ii.) Change the extension to .zip iii.) Unzip to a folder iv.) Copy the app.xlm in the docProps folder v.) Paste this 'old' app.xlm into the folder where you deleted the last one. You should just be able to re-use this file anytime you want to do this. Go back to the 'new' version folder: Re-Zip all folders and files that had been unzipped. Change extension from .z
Topic reference from hereSame problem here. I purchased a license for Mathcad 11 Prime Student Edition, upgraded my account, but the download page says that I am not entitled to download software. As I purchased a license, I request immediate access to download. With the license came an activation code, but without the software I am unable to activate.
