Mathcad Prime 7 plot missing features after conversion from Mathcad 15

After conversion of a Mathcad 15 worksheet, the plot was missing plot title, axes labels, and gridlines (see the attachment).

 

Is there any way to obtain on Prime an "engineering looking plot" as in the original Mathcad plot instead of the converted "high school" plot stripped of the original features. 

 

I would be grateful for any pointers.

    At least, you can add grid lines by using grid function made by Luc and other members. You can add text block by superimpose, however, add text in plot is very hard.

    Hi,

    Try the chart component.  It has axis labels, graph titles, and grids, See Math tab | Regions group |  Chart component

    If you upload your worksheet someone can show you how to use the chart component

    Cheers

    Terry

      Thank you ttokoro for the plots and worksheet. That looks better and it is alright I suppose as a workaround in the interim until PTC produces a seamless converter. 

       

      However, I am still in disbelief (short of saying livid) that simple features of a plot such as title, axes labels and formats cannot be converted from Mathcad 15 (MC15) to Prime 7 (MP7) without manual intervention.  I have well over 300 worksheets in MC15 that I haven't yet converted because I seem to require editing most converted worksheets which is very time consuming, so I end up using my legacy MC15 version by default instead. I have attached as an example the original worksheet in MC15 format and the resulting MP7 after conversion.

        Resulting MP7 after conversion + grid + text box.
