Hi!

Is it possible to return a plot in MC15 from a progam?

Background:

I have multiple excel files with data.

Using the READEXCEL i want to take the data for each file and plot a fitted curve (polyfit(X,Y,2)) for each file

I cannot find any commands to output a plot

Regards

Mathcad is not Matlab. That is: it is not a programming language.

Inserting a plot on a worksheet can only be done by user (interface) action.

What you can do is insert a plot, and adapt it to your needs. Then copy it as many times as you need on the worksheet and feed each plot with data from a file source (data file, excel file, whatever), by just changing the file name. That should work fine if all your file sources are structured similarly (if not equally).

Success!

In Mathcad a plot is not an object which can be stored in a variable or can be the result of a function.
But you sure can write a program which takes the Excel file name and returns the desired function.

Not sure if the following example comes close to what you are looking for:
