I have a PC running Mathcad Prime 4 and Mathcad 15. Would it be possible to move Mathcad 15 to a separate PC or are the licenses tied together? The item on the invoice is: MCD-7502-P Mathcad Professional - Individual And under the shipping details, it only mentions Prime 4. Thanks in advance
Is it possible to change a Prime7.0 license to a new employee? We are not seeing where that can be done. Tried requesting a new license file, but webpage indicated, " invalid parameter values have been passed in. The application cannot continue". Not sure if we can't get this to work because:1) Since the employee left, Prime is now up to version 8.0, which is what we downloaded on new employee's computer. Prime7 purchased product ID perhaps doesn't work with Prime8?2) Can't request new license files if the licensing is tied a particular person's name. We were able to dig up the 'host ID' on the new employee's computer - so we have correct Host ID, and Product ID, but can't get a new license file. Find it interesting that the only way to contact PTC for support help is to use login information, but we don't have login information as that employee is gone. I tried to use my login information, but I'm not the user with the problem.
I am using Mathcad Prime Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.0.0Mathcad Prime 7.0 can show results in scientific notation, but if exponent is zero, the exponent is skipped.Is it possible to display always the exponent as Mathcad 15 can?
HelloI use MathCad Prime 7.0, to a lot of symbolic solutions, but many times it comes out in a long solution that could be reduced, but simplify can not do it. What should I use to make it shorter/reduced.
Hello everyone,I am trying to automatize a calculation process in Mathcad, but I am having some difficulties doing it.Lets say I have a matrix with “n x m” number of rows and columns.In this example we can have the following matrix (5 x 6 – but it can be different, ex: 10 x 15, 9 x 10 etc...):Note that Ni is each row of the matrix.There is a variable “var” that can be equal to 1, 2, 3 or 4.And finally we have vector “V” (that has always 1 single column, but number of rows depends on the variable “var” however this vector is an input, the values below are just an example):I want to obtain the following matrix “M” depending on the variable “var”:- If var = 1 (“V” vector will have just 1 row – F1 = 10)- If var = 2 (“V” vector will have 2 rows – F1 = 10 / F2 = 1)- If var = 3 (“V” vector will have 3 rows – F1 = 10 / F2 = 1 / F3 = 4) - Finally if var = 4 (“V” vector will have 4 rows – F1 = 10 / F2 = 1 / F3= 4 / F = 7)Any suggestions? Thank you so much for your help, Miguel
MathCAD Prime 8.0 error
I am a new user of Mathcad Prime 8 and have created a collapsible area for constants/units etc. However I realise that while I expand the area, the content below the area is shifted downward, when I collapse it, it remains permanently shifted, creating an empty space the same size as the height of the collapsed area. So I have to manually remove the empty space. I am missing something or is this a bug? I do remember Mathcad 15 didn't have this issue?
Hello, I'm using Prime 7 and want to convert some Mathcad 15 documents but for some reason the converter button is greyed out and not clickable. Any tips how to get it working?
Hello everyone,I am quite new at programming in Mathcad.I am trying to create a matrix using different vectors that are obtained based on a certain condition: I made an example with vectors N and M. The idea is to reach at the end the matrix "Final". Is there a way to use a for loop function to define the final matrix taking into account that the number of rows in the vectors N and M can change (but still equal)? Thank you,
I am trying to start a 30 day free trial for a class with an account I have just created, and it says "Program ID already expired" and referred me to this website. Is there anything you can do to help me?
Upon entering by license key i get the following message "Program ID already expired. For more help visit: http://www.ptc.com/olm/contacts.htm", I don't understand why the code doesn't work, am I required to delete Mathcad on my previous school PC before I've got access to use it on this PC? Please, I am in need of the program very soon.
I had a problem with my computer and I would like to install the PTC Mathcad Prime 4.0 again.I don't have more the support contractThanksGustavo
Hi All,I would like to obtain a value of a variable from my worksheet. Let say my worksheet has x:=1 and y:=x+1=2. What function can I use to get the y value? I was trying with Worksheet.OutputGetRealValue(&As)("y") but I got an error instead. The following is my code: Sub test01() Dim WS As Ptc_MathcadPrime_Automation.Worksheet Dim App As Ptc_MathcadPrime_Automation.Application Set App = New Ptc_MathcadPrime_Automation.Application FileName = Application.GetOpenFilename(MultiSelect:=False) Dim conNum As Integer i = 22 conNum = Cells(i, 7) Do While Cells(i, 1).Value <> "" '' inputs Set WS = App.Open(FileName) Call WS.SetRealValue("#", Cells(i, 7), "") Call WS.SetStringValue("M1", Cells(i, 2)) 'Call WS.SetStringValue("M2", Cells(i, 4)) Call WS.SetStringValue("M3", Cells(i, 3)) Call WS.SetStringValue("M4", Cells(i, 1)) Call WS.SetRealValue("D2", 3, "") Call WS.SetRealValue("D3", 3, "") Call WS.SetRealValue("D4", 3, "") Call WS.SetRealValue("D1
I have a Mathcad support contract, but I don't have a contact phone number or any way contact anyone at PTC. Is there a Mathcad support phone number?
I am facing installation issues. The installation shell does not pop up on my computer after self extraction. I have also tried extraction through 7zip and still facing the same issue. I am running windows 11. Please assist me with installation of MathCad. Thanks.
I have done many FFTs of optical images and systems in Mathcad 15. I convert them to Prime 8 and almost all of them will not display the 3d plots due to the error "3D plots must be less than 40,000 points". Why? They worked fine in 15. Also, you can no longer get a good smooth 2D image displayed as if you captured on a ccd camera. Prime 8 doesn't allow me to generate theoretical images that I can compare to my experimental ones captured with the ccd. Why was this capability lost? Or is there a way to do it with 8?
Hi, i am doing some calculations on a project and am quite new to Mathcad. When using the solve block i keep on getting an error and i dont know how to solve this one. Any idea where i might be wrong?
1) I've been working with Mathcad 6 Plus for many years. And it doesn't seem to me that the conversion gives the same result in terms of format. Do you have a comparison table or something similar to facilitate exact file conversion ? (With Prime8 ) 2) Can a spreadsheet be saved in a format locked to the user except for input variables without the user needing to own the Mathcad Prime program? Thank you for the time being.

To all What is the quickest way summing all the data in matrix in mcad 15?I have a matrix of N columnsI want to sum all the number in the following colums1&23&45&6EtcThere are Nrowultimatly the number of columns will be “dynamic” but will always be a multiple of 6
Hi all,I'm still learning how to use API for Mathcad and I have a few questions about this function, SetRealValue. 1) why doesn't the code below work? I mean there are obviously no error, but it doesn't do what I want. In the selected worksheet has x:=2, I was trying to get this x:=2 to be x:=3m. This code below doesn't change anything in this sheet. Sub test01() Dim WS As Ptc_MathcadPrime_Automation.Worksheet Dim App As Ptc_MathcadPrime_Automation.Application Dim FileName Set App = New Ptc_MathcadPrime_Automation.Application FileName = Application.GetOpenFilename(MultiSelect:=False) Set WS = App.Open(FileName) Call WS.SetRealValue(x, 3, "m") End Sub 2), why are there so many functions with the same name reappear in a few different classes? are they doing the same thing? If not, what are the differences? For examples, this SetRealValue occurs in three differences classes: IMathcadPrimeWorksheet, IMathcadPrimeWorksh
Is MathCAD Prime still that bad compared to legacy MathCAD?

To all,Stupid question ...if I have a 2 columns matrix A, is there a way in mcad 15 of creating 1 column vector containing complex numbers so that z=A<0>+iA<1> ?mcad 15 doesn’t seem to like the iA<1> syntax !Do I have to create a programme to loop over all entries ! surely not ! No functin such as complex(a,b) like in excel? Thanks
I am trying to see if the new version of mathcad prime is compatible with my older mathcad files. However after watching the tutorial i have discovered that the converter tab is greyed out. How am I supposed to try the trial version to see if my files are compatible if the converter is greyed out? Is there something that needs to be enabled on the account?
