What can mathcad learn from omnigraphsketch

OmniGraphSketch is a graph sketching utility for mac.

Its for sketching graphs or working with import data. It cannot plot functions. Never the less a couple of things mathcad can learn from it.

Watch demo videos of the program

http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnigraphsketcher/videos/

Ability to click on tick marks and drag to rearrange them

create highlighted regions. like rectangular highlights or better yet highlight regions that are intersected by curves (very awesome)

double click curves to edit their properties.

Draw directly on the graph area, with lines or curves. again useful for highlighting important points on the graph.

import data directly on the graph area.

Beautiful vector graphics.

Double click on the graph area to add text.

PS. I'm not affiliated with the company. plus its a mac program so you won't use it anyway.

There's no shortage of examples out there.

I don't know if origin lab allows you to sketch on the graph area.

it's the interactive properties of omnigraphsketcher that i was pointing too. the demos can clarify what im pointing at

Omni is pretty basic plotting utility. it doesn't do half the things mathcad does. the important isn't the number of graph types( it has only a couple of them anyway) the point being interaction with the graphs are very fluid and easy. Specially the way they highlight regions of the graph.

It's like WYSIWYG graphing.

Ah. I see. I admit I didn't look at the videos, because they require me to download (yet another) plugin, and I couldn't be bothered

Doesn't Excel have all these features and is compatible with Mathcad?

it's not about the features but rather how you about doing them.
