Question

Mathcad 14 reverse scale plot problems

Hi,

I'm just started with mathcad 14.0

When I Plot XY I have to reverse the Y scale. Eg. from 7,000 to 20,000 to 7,000 to 20,000 (so it's poiting south . . .) .

While Plotting reverse Y scale:

when i go to Formating and select in Traces: points the actual plotted data dissapears. Under Formatting / Traces Line (and other options) will work, except points.

When the Scale is NOT reversed, all points are shown as per normal.

This is driving me crazy ... I have only few days left for the assignment and I need to show each point 😕

pls advise

thanks.

points selected under Trace

works on 'normal' scale.

HI Mike,

It may be a bug in MathCad.

I've tried in 15 & it seems to behave the same way that you describe, see attached.

Changing value of 'a' from 30 to -30 swaps the points displayed from 1 graph to the other.

Sorry I can't be more help.

Regards

Andy

PS: if you post a representative sheet it makes it much easier to see the problem & there may be work-arounds that a little lateral thinking sometimes produce.
