Vladimir,

I am building some calculations in Mathcad. The calculation is a spring calculation. We are craeting a graph within this worksheet.

The Mathcad sheet is integrated with a Pro/E suspension assembly.

When I detail the suspension model in drawing module of Pro/E, I want to display the graph created in Mathcad. Now we are manually drawing the graph using draft tools in Pro/E drawing.

Is there any easy way to link the Mathcad graph other than using OLE.

So, you want to embed Mathcad calculation in drawing file Pro/E ".drw". I have never seen such a thing.

Dhinesh, hello!

After I saw that it is possible to embed into the drawing module Pro/E Drawing, I want to show how you solved the problem by the integration of Mathcad with the module Pro/E Drawing. Unfortunately, all the menu Pro/E are shown in Russian language.

1. Working in the module Drawing (in Pro/E) go to the tab "Layout". And then in the menu "Insert" select type "Object":

2. In the settings window, insert the object, select "Create from File" -> "Browse" and point to the desired to us file Mathcad.

3. Inserted so the object can be edited, and at the same time, activates the panel program Mathcad. Mathcad document is interactive and we can change our calculations, as well as to adjust / resize the display window in a drawing.

4. The final result for the integration of Mathcad into the document module Drawing (in Pro / E) as follows:
