[mathcad] RE: String variable as graph title?

No. I asked for this, along with other programmable features, a couple of years
ago.

The 'trick' is to overlay a string, or annotate it. You partially enhance the
appearance by using tricks like applying a user style with white font to the
string variable or dropping white regions over the "strgvar=". Not very
satisfactory, IMO.

Subject: [mathcad] String variable as graph title?

In a Mathcad-13 X-Y plot, is it possible to use a (previously-defined) string
variable as the graph title, rather than using manual entry into the
Format/Labels/Title data field?

Thanks,

Product Reviews

"Our work ranges from complex medical imaging research to large-scale mapping and diagrams and we need a tool that is able to handle anything we investigate. With Mathcad, we are able to manipulate and analyse our data quickly while at the same time documenting our work, for sharing and publication. We also use it for pilot studies conducted in support of research grant applications. It is an end-to-end tool for research and development."
Dr. Kenneth Castleman, President of Advanced Digital Imaging Research (ADIR), Houston, Texas

"Mathcad is an integral product for my work... With Mathcad, itís easy to disseminate design calculations because the documents look like real math. Thereís very little I canít do in Mathcad. The main benefits come from the format, which resemble a typed set of calculations. These programs are easier to develop by engineers and easier for others to follow and review since the logic is expressed in a familiar manner. The format is what places Mathcad head and shoulders above other programs of a similar function."
