    How to find the location of a graphically selected element inside the Multiple Extract command?

    I'm wondering if there is any way to determine the # of an element in the Multiple Extract command dialog box? Suppose there are tens of elements there inside the box, and just few of of them should be /deleted/replaced, how is it possible to find them quickly, not checking them one by one?

    Syntax error in formula editor

    I wanna use a custom syntax in formula editor. I don't have any problem when my syntax is simple including + - * /, for example (2*4mm). But when I try something like sqrt(16mm), an error message pops up. What's the right syntax for something like 10 mm + square (100mm) + (2mm)3?
