Hi all,
I use MC15 and my question is "how you can write a label/tag near a specific point on a graph".

Example: I have a function f(x) and I want to write something near the point f(x=26).

Regards

You can do it (in a rather unsatisfactory manner) by writing your label in a text box and then dragging this onto the graph, as has been done in the image below. You can't get Mathcad to label points automatically though.

You can insert an EXCEL component into version 15, pass data to it and create the graph in EXCEL (which gives more graphing flexibility.

Do you know if this is possible on MathCad Prime 1,2,3 ?

No, in Prime you don't even have the ability to add a plot title, axis labels or a legend. You are supposed to use text boxes even for those things.

Another possibility is to use the Amazing Images eBook routines. See thread http://communities.ptc.com/community/mathcad/mathcad-usage/blog/2010/05/27/creating-amazing-images-with-mathcad-14 for details on downloading
