Hi,

I want to have several parameters take on different values depening on material selection. I have been unable to use text in if statements so far. The best would be if the user could select the materials from a set of selections. So far I have done it bu using an embedded excel sheet and doing the input in there, but I am not happy about it. Do anyone have an elegant solution for this?

For example:

Material="S355"

a=2

b=3

c=4

Material="316L"

a=0.5

b=1

c=5

etc...

any help is much appreciated.

      I am actually using PTC Mathcad Prime 3.1. Such a solution as you presented is what I prefer, but I am not sure it is possible in prime. Or at least, I have not found a way to make a list where the user can select the desired input.

      Someone posted this example recently, which may be useful.
