Question

MC14 vs Prime10

Hi,

 

Been lurking around here for a decade but never posted before. I just upgraded from MC14 to Prime10 and struggling with things as I get used to it.

(1) How do I add additional sheet/page sizes? Specifically I am trying to add A1 and A2, right now it stops at A3.

(2) What is the trick to using Find/Replace for subscripts? I tried Test.Test and TestTest but neither returned a match. I did find a post about this related to Prime6 but I figure it must have been addressed by now since I am 4 versions past that...

 

Thanks!

(1) What you have is the list of page sizes. Even in Prime 11, there's no supported way to add more paper sizes as far as I know.

(2) Glaciers move faster than PTC develops Prime (if those phenomena can be compared). And with global warming going on, PTC is lagging more behind...

 

Success!

ad (1) in MC14/15 the available paper sizes depends on the default printer set. Whatever the printer driver supports can be selected in Mathcad. I often used a pdf printer to be able to set a giant page size. In Prime paper sizes are hard coded in the software - what PTC offers in the menu is all you can get.

 

ad (2) Improvement of Primes mediocre Find/Replace is a long standing wish from the community. But as Luc already wrote is PTC only moving forward at a snail's pace.
