Wondering if Mathcad Prime is able to tile worksheets, in order to compare side by side and copy/paste.

I believe this was a capability in previous versions.

It doesn't seem like it can; another one of the many, many, many...features that Prime is still missing.

The only view options I found are in the document tab on the ribbon:

  View as "Page"

  View as "Draft"

  Zoom factor slider.

These can also be found at the bottom-right corner of the window.

Thank you Luc.  That is what I have discovered as well.

I did submit a support request to make sure I wasn't missing something, and it was confirmed the functionality is not there.

I was notified I can request the functionality through the PTC Product Idea Submission Process site. If enough in the Mathcad community feel it is valuable functionality, and submit through the Product Idea site, there may be consideration to develop it.

As far as my experience is, those product ideas are a placebo.

In Prime 5.0, I found it could not tile worksheets within a single instance of the application, but, it can open multiple instances of the application, and you can cut or copy from the worksheet in one instance and paste into the other.  So to open a second worksheet and work on them side-by-side, open another instance of the program, open your second worksheet in the second instance of the program, and you're all set.
