Default plot trace colours

I may be overlooking something, but there doesn't seem to be a way to define my own set of colours to be used for plot traces in a 2D plot, let alone save that in my template.

Or, did anyone ever find a way?

I'd like to have it for mathcad 11.

Thanks in advance,

Luc

Luc,

You can go as far as Mathcad 11 permits in terms of trace specifications, all specifications confounded,

i.e: colors, styles, legends

Create a "blank fill-in graph" ... copy/paste and fill [as simple as said]

In later versions of Mathcad you can define your trace colors. I believe that feature was introduced in Mathcad 13, and it exists in Mathcad 14 and 15.

If you mean custom colors, you can't do that in version 11.

let alone save that in my template.

Open your template and insert a graph. Size the graph to what you would like as a default, choose the trace colors, styles, etc, then on the last tab check "use for defaults" and click on OK. Delete the graph, then save the template.
