Mathcad Prime: To open included files from within worksheet

Mathcad Prime: To open included files from within worksheet

When a Mathcad Prime 2.0 worksheet has another Mathcad (Prime 2.0) worksheet(s) included (using Include Worksheet button) , there is no option (by right clicking "Include<<" right on left side of the included file) to back open this file later from withing the parent Mathcad worksheet. It is easier than using the Windows Explorer for the user to take a view at the included file or to edit as required.

I find similar use in some other 3D-design softwares - not only very helpful but also not able to do otherwise.

Pl. comment

Best Regards.

Hello,

1. How do you want to see the included worksheet? Do you want it to open it within an area inside the parent worksheet, or do you want it to open in a separate window?

2. Do you want to update it on the fly and see what-ifs?

3. When should the parent worksheet update?

Immediately, after the child worksheet is saved, after the parent worksheet is resaved?

I'd like to see some comments and votes from others.

Hello, Mona.

1. In a separate window.

2. Yes.

3. Immediately, after the child worksheet is saved.

I agree with Vladimir's comments on this. The biggest thing would be to be able to open the referenced file (in a separate window/tab) from within a worksheet, since sometimes a standardized reference file is in a completely different folder than the worksheet I'm editing and going to find it in Windows explorer takes longer.
