conditional formatting

[Snowshoeman]

How can I add conditional formatting to Mathcad sheet similar to what is available in excel?  I was envisioning formatting the output of a Boolean equation using Mathcad.   As near as I can tell, there is nothing in the Mathcad Prime 11 help that leads to some form of conditional formatting.

Could you perhaps explain in more detail what exactly you have in mind? It would be best if you could give a specific example.

If by 'formatting' you mean things like page size, margins, grid size, but also headers and footers, then I'm afraid that's not possible in Prime.

If you mean things like font size, font color, etc. for a specific region, then using a scripted component (text box) could possibly be a solution.
However, the appearance of “normal” Mathcad regions cannot be modified programmatically.

I'm referring to variables within math regions that could possibly be modified programmatically.  I infer that this is not possible.

The color, size, etc. of variables in a math region cannot be changes singly. You can only change the appearance of ALL variable names, etc. in a region and it only could be done manually via the menu.

So you can (manually) create something like

but you cannot create something like

Find attached an example of a scripted text box. I slightly modified the example from the help  (see here).

Primes scripted components are quite limited compared to other programs (and also Mathcad 15) so we only can modify background color, text color and text size. There is not auto-resize, no choice of font used, etc.  (See here)

Thank you.  Maybe someday the program can be improved.
