Question

Property "USE_TRANSFORM" in mathcad.p.xml / How to pass MST to PIM installer using setup.exe

What function does <PROPERTY name="USE_TRANSFORM"/> serve in the file mathcad.p.xml?

How can I pass a transform file (MST) to the MSI when using the PIM installer (setup.exe -xml "%~dp0mathcad.p.xml")?
Is this possible through the mathcad.p.xml?

 

Is there a way to configure directly in the mathcad.p.xml file to prevent the creation of the program menu shortcut for "PTC Mathcad License Wizard" to C:\Program Files\PTC\Mathcad Prime 9.0.0.0\LicenseWizard.exe?

Thank you.

Hi,

As far as I am aware there is no documentation for working in a Prime instance or file with mark up languages.

Cheers

Everything about the installation that PTC wishes to share is in the Installation guide:

https://www.ptc.com/en/support/refdoc/Mathcad_Prime/9.0/installation_guide

It discusses .p.xml files, but the word 'transform' does not appear in it.

 

I doubt if it's handled here:

https://community.ptc.com/t5/Mathcad-Installation/All-About-Mathcad-Software-Installation/m-p/706433#M26

but you might try your luck.

 

Success!
