I guess you propose to read the settings from the description. I'd like this feature very much, yet, how to include calculated values?
I'd also propose a Hotkey or context menu item to send the current settings to the description as a template

Hi Viacheslav. Thanks, it works fine. One question: Is there a way to use the RGB matrix of the image, instead of the file?

Best regards.
Alvaro.

Soon ... more bugs added

The release manager is down again, so just an announcement.

It is also possible to draw svg icon sets (favicon, …), but I have not yet decided how to encode them.

Hi Viacheslav. About 'mat' method, I can't read an image with READRGB, and with image2rgb I don't know how to plot it as RGB (the matrix output from image2rgb is always 1 row by 3 columns containing the 3 matrices R, G and B )

Best regards.
Alvaro.

Hi Uni and fellow Smath users,
does this above imply that "setprop" is now not only the preferred way to set plot properties, but also the only one?
I still didn't study it, in case I need to make my homeworks as soon as possible since I have some tools that used the old (deprecated?) way of setting props and autoscaling plots.

Do you have an updated sample file to share, that allows to identify the new way of working with plot properties?

Thanks

To avoid editing documents, you can try this method. But you need to set a value for the Name property of the component.

I can't build a fixed MathcadToolbox plugin. When it becomes possible, I will release a new version.

I think it is possible to draw a line of text in a similar way. The interface for such a call should also be consistent with the general approach for shapes.

I didn't do it right away because the images form very large matrices. Regular functions don't have access to the sheet area and the list of components, so it can't be done directly. But there is a way to do it differently. We can reread the document itself manually and parse it. I've done this before. So, I think it will be possible to add new functionality to the image handling functions, but only where I am a developer. It should work where there will be read access to the document itself.


As for entering a list of points, this is also possible. I'll even say more, I had thoughts of adding horizontal and vertical markers in any quantity. It's not difficult to draw them, the problem is in outputting information from them to the document. We need to figure out how to do it beautifully and universally.
