Add trapeze integrator to rescue the built-in Simpson as it fails.
Unlimited use per document, each independent 'n'.

The image region plugin works well for SVGs, thank you.

Unfortunately, when 'saved as' a PDF they are rendered out as rasters (not very good ones).

It could be interesting to implement a plugin that allows me to mark a variable located anywhere on my sheet and monitor its value while I change another variable elsewhere. For example, when designing, approval values are often at the end, while the main input is at the beginning. Every time I need to see how a change affects the variable of interest, I have to scroll all the way down to check it, which makes the process very tedious.

(#63) Alex,
For now, you can use the trace() command and launch the debug window with F11.

There was also the split-window Mode, once upon a time.

However, another way could be the use of absolute variables (those that have a leading tilde character in the name).
Define ~abs_variable_name:variable_name after your actual calculation, then put the evaluation of ~abs_variable_name wherever is best for you.

This is also an option. It avoids absolute variables, which are a nightmare to type with a german keyboard.

Yet it relies on double recalculation after changes in input.

What I would like some already existing plugins support Linux Mono, not just Windows.
