PTC Mathcad - Inserting Images

[@ashishthapayt]

Thank you professor. Do you have any idea of the tools that book publishers use to make the drawings ?

[@PatJHeffernan]

Sure. Most popular for professional drawings is the Adobe Suite of software (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc). Getting more common are getting drawings out of 3D models (SolidWorks, Fusion360, etc). When I do this I usually end up augmenting them with markups in Illustrator, etc. For most things I find PPT the simplest and most accessible.

Is there a way to insert an image and automatically move everything down if it is overlapping what is already in the worksheet?

[@PatJHeffernan]

As best I am aware, not automatically, but to create the space needed for the image is a fairly simple process.

[@williamcase426]

@@PatJHeffernan All right, it's just rather annoying having to push everything down when rearranging a document or copying in something fairly large.

"Thank you, sir. However, how can I set the grid in PowerPoint to match the scale in Mathcad?"

[@PatJHeffernan]

Hi. You don’t. Build it in PPT for a transparent background, then highlight and save as PNG. Import the image and it will have a transparent background. :)

@@PatJHeffernan THANKS FOR REPLAY No problem for background but my concern is matching the scale between PPT and PTC

[@PatJHeffernan]

@@ahmedbadral-dean4273 Ahh, now I understand your query. Sadly PPT does not support parametric drawings so the images are non-interactive sketches. Cheers,

Thank you sir for your videos.... Could you teach us how to integrate PTC MathCAD with PTC Creo? Thanks in advance

[@PatJHeffernan]

Sorry, I don’t use Creo. Maybe someday…
