What happened to the collection of worksheets library?

[PabloGarcia]

There was a useful collection of worksheets available until recently with a wide selection of topics in engineering: Civil, Electrical, thermodynamics, physics and mathematics, but suddenly it is no longer available. Withdrawing a library with the perception of profit making is the short-term narrow mindness of salesman instead of fostering the use of Mathcad for the long term which is what Mathworks has been sucessfully doing with its well established product Matlab.

Guess PTC wants you to pay for the sheets now.

500 bucks and they are yours again 😉

Worksheet library

P.S.: I fully agree on your thoughts about that shortsightedness.

What a rip-off!

Yes, indeed! Maybe PTC is thinking that anyone willing to buy and use Prime for doing work is also willing to pay for those sheets.

Longterm users still sticking to Mathcad 15 are not the target audience, I guess.

That's for sure. The library of worksheets in Mathcad 15 (or earlier) format has suffered the same fate as the Library of Alexandria.

Some worksheets can be found in this section "PTC Mathcad - All Worksheets": http://communities.ptc.com/docs/DOC-3621

Sure, but Pablo was referring to the approx 40 documents which also used to be accessible there and were deleted two day ago by Brent Edmonts.

Look at the last 40 entries in the document section of Math Homework help. The attachments are deleted and I wonder whats the reason for letting the description online - its rather useless or should that be a teaser? It sure isn't.
