Need to algebraically solve for a variable in prime

In legacy MCAD it was symbolics,/ variable / solve where you highlight to desired variable

In prime I see Math / Symbolics / Solve

But this does not work as legacy MCAD

Is this possible in PRIME

First, make your MCAD sheet what you want. Then convert it to Prime 8 by MCD converter. Then you find the answer if it is possible in Prime.

The static symbolic evaluation is not available in Prime any more and honestly I don't miss it. It was quite failure prone as the static result won't change automatically if you change the initial formula.

Use the live symbolic "solve" command instead and assign the results to variables or functions (and don't use copy and paste).

See if the attached file helps.

Thanks for the response.

There no directions on how to do this. One of my guys figured it out.

Oh no! There definitely are!

But you sure would have to be more specific about what exactly you are trying to accomplish 😉

There are no apparent instructions on how this is done - and or easily found. One of my guys figured it out.
