Entering capital and small letters in La Tex

[rb75]

When writing equations in La Tex, if I a enter a capital letter to represent a variable in the first equation I write, if I use that same letter in small form when writing a different equation, after examining the equation in preview mode, La Tex by default always displays the small letter in the form of a capital letter and vice versa. Is there a way to prevent La tex from doing this when writing equations?

This is not how LaTeX works …

$$
E = mc^2
$$

$$
-1 = e^{i\pi}
$$

That's not what I see. I get this (both in preview and as posted)*:

$X=\frac{A}{a}$

$y=\frac{2A}{aX}$

$z=xa^2$

* Win 10 & Chrome

I wrote the following equations:
The first was written using hash tag delimiters, and the second equation was written using dollar sign delimiters .
Could you please let me know if these equations have displayed properly in this post.

This equation was written using hash tags delimiters $a = GM/d^2$
This equation was written using dollar sign delimiters $$d = 1/2gt^2$$
Thanks.

@rb75 If what you see is different from the screenshot posted above by Orodruin, please post a screenshot of what you are seeing so that we can understand the issue better.

Thanks for the reply.
The equations seem to be displayed properly.

When I view the equations in the my preview mode, the second equation is displayed improperly, the small letter g in the scond equation is displayed improperly in the form of a capital letter. Do you know if there's any way this can fixed so that the equation displays properly when I view it in my Preview mode?

Since nobody seems to be able to reproduce this, I'd guess nobody has a solution for it either.

@Wrichic Basu
Hi thanks for the help.
I would be glad to post you a screenshot Wrichic Basu, if you could please explain how I would do it. I'm new to PF and am very incompetent using the features in this editor. I've already been scolded once for copying and pasting text.

I sometimes have issues with the preview, different from yours, I think. I can always fix mine by just refreshing the page.

Are you on your phone? If so , which kind?

If you are on a computer, what operating system version is it? If it's Win-10, you can use Windows-Shift-S to put it in Snapshot mode and drag the rectangle with your mouse to capture that screenshot.
