Hello,

In mathcad prime, is there a reason why prime ( using P9)  keep losing some images that i pasted in a sheet and replaces some of the images with " Browse for Image?

Well, two things.

 

One, the best way to insert images is by browsing for them and not copy-pasting them from elsewhere. You can and it's the fastest way, but it's strictly inferior.

And two, the actual browse for image region is supposedly done away with starting in Mathcad Prime 11, so I'm wondering if this can be replicated in Mathcad Prime 11.

Hi,

Double click the "Browse for Image" button and a file selector appears.  File selector is used to input an image file

 

Cheers

Hi Terry,

 

I double clicked and it took me to a folder. I dont have the image stored in that folder.  I  snipped that image and pasted directly into the sheet. There are several images in the sheet, but prime picks few and replace them with " Browse for image".

 

Regards,

Sam
