- Panels for symbol input: These help you input symbols like Greek letters, arrows etc.
- Panels for equation creation:These allow you to create equations including divisions, integrals, summations, roots etc.
Understanding Nesting in Math Editor | equation editor
Math Editor nests equations according to the current cursor context. In order to create your desired equations, you have to be aware of the current cursor context. A horizontal bliking cursor helps you visually see the current equation context.
In order to move out of the current equation, you can either use the arrow keys or your mouse.
Miscellaneous of Math Editor | equation editor
- Use arrow keys to move the cursor around. You can also use your mouse to put the cursor at the desired place.
- The zoom level can be increased or decreased using the + and - toolbar buttons. You can also change zoom level by holding down the Ctrl key and using the mouse wheel.
