How do I format (font, font size) plot title ?

I want to format the title of a Mathcad 15 plot (font, font size) separately from axis titles

Best answer by LucMeekes

Correct, the title will be a separate region, containing only text, for which you can set the format to whatever you like. Once done formatting you position it over the plot region at your desired position. Best may be to have the plot region overlap the text region completely. You should be able to set which region is at the foreground, the other then moves to the background.

If you add or delete empty lines above the plot, the plot and the text regions will move together.

 

Success!

Hmm, not sure you can, Dixie.  They're all Math Text Font style and I can't find a way to separately apply styles to them or change the text font, colour or emphasis.  

 

Perhaps Luc or Werner have some ideas?

I have files that I created some time ago where I did it but I cannot do it now

If it would help I can send one of the files if there is a way to do so

 Hi Dixie,

 

Take a look at the following tips, here:

The problem is that the style affects all labels.   What Dixie is requesting, I think, is the ability to change the x/y and Title labels independently.

In the file he posted there are no x,y-labels set. So I assume the he just wants the title label be different from the axis arguments, not the axis labels.

 

So using Menu: Format - Equation - Math Text Font - Modify seems to be the way to go.
