Mathcad

A long time ago I found by chance a way to get a popup where I could change cursor color and some other settings in Prime. Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce it (I was just poking around finding out how to achieve certain things via keyboard shortcuts, as the documentation for German keyboards is awfully wrong). Today I did the same (doc for shortcuts still is wrong) and was able to reproduce. As far as I remember the pop up window in the older Prime version offered more options to change.   So her it is: Pressing shift-ctrl-alt-Q or shift-altgr-Q at the same time opens a DebugPropertyWindow: I am not sure if this will work on other languages keyboards as well. If not, this information may help: On German keyboards pressing ctrl-alt-Q or altgr-Q creates the @ character. Not sure if there are other goodies hidden - go out and try 😉   EDIT: Sorry for the double post! When I searched the forum to see what I reported way back when I found out about this option first, I f

My Mathcad 15 student edition will not print in Windows 10 to any device including external printer or internal PDF converter, etc. Converting a file to prime 1 will allow printing to work from Prime 1. Reinstalled both Mathcad 15 and Prime 1 with no fix. Version M045 of Mathcad 15 did not help. Are there fixes available? I am running software on an HP Pavilion desktop. email: jerrybayles2013@outlook.com 08/09/2018

Hi all!   I'm finishing up my newest Mathcad but, I know longer want to use Mathcad's automatic calculation, I would much rather calculate the entire worksheet at one time at the top of the sheet (due to it's size) I'm hoping someone can explain how I could use a push button to achieve this? See the files I have attached (I've included what I'm sorta looking for on top).   Thanks!

Hi all - I have Prime 4.0, and have MC 15 installed on my computer as well, but the xmcd conversion button in Prime is still grayed out and not available.  Any suggestions? 

a:=[10nm, 20nm, 50nm, 100nm] b:=[20%, 15%, 10%, 5%]   lookup(10nm,a,b,"eq")=[20% 15% 10% 5%]   The problem is that equal (default), range and the rest of the modifiers take tolerance into consideration. Does anyone at PTC even use their own software? How can such an obvious bug, that would take 5 minutes to fix, still exist? How can you have a culture so toxic that it is easier to spend hours writing articles on getting around this bug, than fixing it.   Just add another modifier and set the tolerance value in the search to 0. This is incredibly frustrating to see such stupid bugs still around. I guess I may need to get better at yoga, so maybe I can see it as a feature from PTC's point of view.      Mathcad... The tool where you spend 80% of your time tracking down and working around bugs that would have taken developers 5 minutes to fix (fuming angry face)

Rather than send the actual spreadsheet with all the raw data I have attached a pdf which shows  some of the data.  From the matrix Z I have extracted the data that exceeds my reference value, so I have a matrix NewLo which shows all the anodic values (i.e. the ones that exceed my reference value).   The extracted data is not contiguous, since  the values are not always anodic.   What I am trying to do is to determine the longest continuous period for which the values are anodic.  This is Tmax and that value is used in an acceptance criterion formula.  My logic is that if the row numbers are contiguous then start counting (i.e. from 305-308 = 4 seconds, or 523 - 525 = 3 seconds etc)   I am hoping that someone will be able to point me in the right direction.   Thank you.   Thanks.

A system equation doesn't work, it dislaying the error: no solution found. I think that this is a placement or pages issue as even the function numbering is not working ( when setting namebers for each paragraphe title, it not exceed 3)   Please find attached the worksheet The equation system is on page 34 The same equation works in page 11

Is there any more information about Rockwell $1B investment in PTC available here? I don't expect this to has big impact on the future of Mathcad (it can't get worse and I guess it won't improve)  but I wonder if the reasons  for PTC obviously needing this investment are also the reason for other things going wrong, like the snail-like "development" of Prime or the direction in which this forum developed.

I just installed Mathcad prime 5.0 trial version on my windows 7 machine, and the install went okay, but right at the end I see this message: I tried un installing and re-installing, and got the same thing. My machine is an x64 machine... it is an older Dell. When I run it, the splash screen comes up... then goes away. When I look in the task manager, it is running as a task, but It never opens the main screen. Any thoughts?

A very simple task to find min of each column of a matrix but something strange happening.

YASB Yet Another Symbolics Bug   I don't expect PTC to fix this bug in the near or far future but just out of curiosity - does anybody has an explanation or idea whats going wrong internally in the symbolics here (other than "its a bug").   I did not take the time to convert to Prime but I expect the same error there, too. MC15 worksheet attached.

Please see attached data   1.Create folder C:\FSDS\INPUT and put IT_00000001_000_1_IN.csv2.Create folder C:\FSDS\DB_Diametri and put A00.cvs in it3.Create folder C:\FSDS\DB_Curve and put A00B6D.cvs in it4.Create Folder C:\FSDS\OUTPUT_TP5.Calculate FCP1InitializePressureTable_20180531.mcdx : An Excel file will be created in OUTPUT_TP6.Calculate FCP1CalculationAtGivelenSpeed_20180606_STEP.mcdx   Please observe that in the Iteration 5 ( page 50/148) the value of Dn=0 and note that the only difference with the previous Iterations is that this time skip=1 ( where previously it was always 0)

Hallo, can anyone tell me what is here wrong:     Thank you, br Stefan

unable to access .xmcd extension file used in Mathcad 15 when upgrade to math cad prime 3.1

I need to plot a 3d truss Please. See the attachment file

Hi,    I would like to get the expression of a function after differentiation with respect to a variable. Somehow Mathcad does not recognize the variable and tells that the variable is undefined. it leads to make it impossible to find the derivative.         numerically, the calculation is correct. It is just this symbolic feature that are having problem.   I appreciate any suggestion.  

Hello,   I installed MC5.0 and tryed to start the F1 Help Button, but there is no Help dokumentation available. How can I fix this? Windows 10-64Bit Java is updated   Thank you for your help Volker

Hello,   I perform Monte Carlo simulations. As a result, I get a histogram of the frequencies. After that, I change the number of events, but the associated histogram is not automatically scaled. Can I program this?

Helloas in the Monte Carlo simulation in the help (step 7), the columns with the variable i are separated into vectors.How can I just get the positive or negative values?Example: From this column I only want the positive or negative values.   I use Mathcad Prime 4.0  

Dear ptc-community,   I currently have a problem re-installing mathcad Prime.   When using the installer-file (pim_installmgr_mathcad) I can only get to the third page, where I usualy dicide which part of the software to be installed (I attached a screenshot). Now this page is empty, so I can not finish the installation.   Does anyonne know a solution? Or could it just be an issue with the ptc-server and I only have to try it another time?   my OS is Windows 7 professional x64.

Hi,   Recently there was a new release of Mathcad Prime 5.0. And here only a few new features concerning 2D plots: Format axes, tick marks, and values for tick marks.
