I am using Mathcad 14 and I would like to know if one can write partial derivatives in Mathcad. On the Calculus palette we just have the normal derivative symbol.

I'm using Mathcad 15---

I can insert a derivative using the Calculus palette, and then right-click on the derivative. Choose View Derivative As > Partial Derivative on the popup menu.

  • Thank you very much indeed. This works with Mathcad 14 as well. I will give you 1 vote up when my reputation score gets above 15! – user11206 Feb 02 '15 at 10:46
  • But in Mathcad 14 on reopening the file, the normal derivative appears again even if the file was last saved with the derivative as a partial one. A bug in Mathcad 14. – user11206 Mar 24 '15 at 17:23
