Hello,

I do want to overlay two efficiency maps. I is possible to have different lines for the contours - one solid - one dashed?

Now I'm using Mathcad 15 but may be that is possible with Prime?

many thanks

Doh! "Special" tab, Line Style on the right hand side - solid, dash, dotted, dash-dotted.

I don't see an option to select the line type, but you can change line thickness and colour; you can even choose to have one displayed as a solid colour and the other as a colormap (eg, greyscale).

It may be possible to get a dash-like effect by defining your own colormap that alternates between, say, white and black or between light gray and black.

perfect answer - thanks a lot - also the artwork is great.

Now I'm hopping to the next problem - is there a possibility to have a colour scale legend added, so we can see for what numbers the colours of the lines in "colour scheme mode" stand?

thanks

Mathcad 15 or mathcad Prime?

I can do it thru plotting an add plot f(x ,y)=const
