Text as a result

AndreasZieritz — Thu, 03 May 2018 16:39:35 GMT

I've done a short programblock, where the result asa text is assigned to a variable.Simplified like that: text:="Results er ok."Now is it possible to just show the result of the variable "text" in the worksheet without showing "text="?

Three possibilities come to mind:

1) put an empty object (e.g. "Insert/Picture") over the part you don't want to see

2) use symbolic evaluation and hide the LHS (you will still see the right arrow or an equal sign, though)

3) use a scripted component to display the text. Here you could also change the fore- and background color of the text depending on the result

I am assuming you are using Mathcad 15 (or below). Otherwise in Prime 2) and 3) will not be available and I am not sure about 1).

I insert different pictures as a text by the changing of languages on my Mathcad server.

One example.

And I do it when I want to have comments - all is ok or not ok - with colors

Forgot to mention that I am using Mathcad Prime 3.

Sorry, my tricks only in Mathcad 15.

So the only way I can think of is placing a piece of white bitmap over the LHS - not exactly an elegant solution.

I just tried and it works. Its crazy but I found no way to change the order of the regions, so whatever is placed last is on top - in case of the following example its the first text evaluation.
