[mathcad] RE: Weird editor bugs (again)
Author: Mark Smith    Posted: Tue, 27 Sep 2005 10:07:34 +0100
Hi
I'm still using 2000 & have never seen this. Have you applied all the
service packs? if you do a help about does your serial number end in C ?
this was the last update (i think)

Subject: [mathcad] Weird editor bugs (again)



I'm working with Mathcad 2000 at the moment - we had a copy going spare, and
it was a lot closer to my colleaagues than the v7 I have been stubbornly
sticking to these last few years, so I decided to make use of it. No
problems so far, until today - but then I haven't stressed it until today.
Actually, what I've been doing today shouldn't have been particularly
stressful - simple symbolic stuff - but stressful compared to what I've used
it for thus far. Anyway ...

... I've discovered this "interesting" bug in the equation editor. I'd be
surprised (but not amazed) if it's not known about, but I don't recall it
being aired before. I'm editing an equation (with symbolic equals, not
evaluation equals) - just manually regrouping some terms - and trying to
delete a placeholder (using the delete key on the keyboard). Three times
now, Mathcad has just instanteously shut itself down as a result. Not
crashed, just made a sharp exit - as if Delete was a (red)hotkey. One time,
Windows even asked me if I wanted to send blahblah.mcd to the Recycle Bin
...

So now I'm proceeding very carefully, saving every few seconds, and keeping
my fingers crossed. Does anyone know anything about this bug?

Andy
