The disappointing answer is - you can't.

Mathcad 15's Ctrl-Enter isn't exactly brilliant but in Prime we have not even hat 😞

Some people resort to making and editing screenshots of a long expression and put the real working expression in a collapsed area when they are creating reports. Its a shame.

Yes, Prime is just a big disappointment. There is one thing you can do with long expression in Prime which you can't do in MC15 - you can size the region. But thats not only useless when creating reports where you have to show your formulas, its also useless when editing and working on the file as you cannot scroll horizontally in that region - to see the end of an expression you must size theregion to full width - pathetic!
