Question

Mathcad Prime 2.0 clipboard format

Hi,

I've searched this Forum, Mathcad Help, as well as a broader search of the internet and haven't found what I'm looking for. What I'm after is documentation on Mathcad Prime 2.0's clipboard format. You know, like if I copy a math region -- what does Mathcad put onto the clipboard?

I know it puts only one format of data onto the clipboard: CF_UNICODETEXT.

I also know the syntax is pretty simple, and somewhat reminiscent of RPN, except the operators are prefix instead of postfix like in RPN. Something like this for x squared, for example: (^ x 2)

It's pretty obvious it's defined somewhere. My question is, is it defined somewhere that I can access? Or is it limited to PTC developers?

Thanks,

Bob

Copy in text box (not Mathcad 15 and Prime 3.0)

Right, that's the format, but I'm looking for the full spec that documents every element of that format.
