Thanks for your important question. When exported to a PDF, advanced controls are not interactive. The PDF is created in whatever current state the Mathcad worksheet was in. So if the slider was set to a certain position before saving to PDF, the PDF will reflect that slider's position upon save. But you won't be able to slide it on a PDF, or press any of the buttons, etc.
Just watched through the video and there's a particular worksheet in there (Hollow Shaft Design_New) which does exactly what I need to do where one drop down menu is directly controlled by the preceding drop down menu. Is there any way I can get hold of this sheet please so that I can use it as a starting point for a sheet I am working on?
@@PTC_Mathcadthat would be great. Would it be possible to get this rough worksheet? It has the exact control in it that I need. I can take it and amend it to suit my conditions.
Nice
I have an important question! Are these advanced control options interactive when exported as for instance .pdf file? Thanks in adcance.

We do plan to release materials for customers to download for each of the Advanced Control types, but it'll take some time to polish and put together.
