How to make AREAs independent in a Worksheet?

Hello,

I am trying to keep everything - every equation and all the variables, etc. - in a single worksheet.

To do this, areas must be independent of each other.

Can MathCad do this? (I have version 15).

Thank you,

Anousheh

No. The nearest I think you can get to it is to define within a text region all of the items you would want in an Area. The ability to do what you want forms part of a long standing feature request to have rectangular (rather than worksheet-wide) Areas that are effectively embedded worksheets and can have their own local definitions - see, for example, http://communities.ptc.com/message/183988#183988.

Hello,

Thank you for the information.

1- How do you define a rectangular area?

2- How do you insert a block of calculation into the text region?

Thanks,

Anousheh

You can't - it's a feature request.

2- How do you insert a block of calculation into the text region?

ctrl-shft-a or Insert Math Region from the menu/insert or right-click context menu.

Have a look at the worksheet in the linked message.
