Symbolic partial differentiation using Mathcad Prime 2.0

How do I accomplish the simple task of partial differentiation using Prime 2.0. While Mathcad does provide for diffentiation of an expression in its Calculus

symbolic template. Nothing seems to show the partial differentiation symbol? This is tragic! Maybe this symbology was provided on earlier versions of Mathcad not supported by PTC!!

If you right-click over the operator you get a pop-up menu to allow the choice, just like you can change the multiplication symbol and the equals symbol.

You must

1 input the deriv operator

2 change it into partial

3 input -> operator

Partial differential is available in 15 and 14.

Mathcad 15 (at least what I downloaded on a trail basis) doesn't have a partial differentiation operator either

Sorry, Mathcad 15 has a partial differentiation operator:

If you right-click over the operator you get a pop-up menu to allow the choice, just like you can change the multiplication symbol and the equals symbol.

Thanks Valery. Maybe PTC will send a patch for Prime 2.0.But I won't hold my breath waiting for it 🙂
