Hmmmmm. What browser are you using?

- Warren
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Opera 7.23

Sometimes they appear high like that, and sometimes they appear low.


Oh, and I get them in Netscape 7.0 too. (appearing low for the image I posted)

And this never used to happen in PF2? Does clicking on a latex image still bring up the little code dialog?

- Warren
 
Never happened before the upgrade. And yes, I can still get the code popup.
 
Test... [tex]\beta[/tex]
 
And there still be a dash. It's low.
 
Test... [itex]\sqrt{x}[/itex] [itex]\{sqrt}{x}[/itex]
 
Testing... [tex]E = -grad\Phi[/tex]
 
Testing... [tex]E = \grad\Phi[/tex]
 
Testing... [itex]E = mc^2<br /> E = -grad\Phi[/itex]
 
Testing.. [itex]\sqrt x[/itex]
 
still dashes. All low.
 
Hurkyl,

I'm afraid it really may just be a bug in your browser.

- Warren
 
The dash goes away if I take out the anchor tag.

Oddly, if I change "<a href..." to "<b href..." it shows up fine.
 
Right, your browser is not obeying the border=0 attribute on the images for some reason -- likely because of a style sheet or other bug.

- Warren
 
Test... [itex]\infty[/itex]
 
I am just testing the new LateX engine.

[itex]x = \int_\infty^0 \sin(\cos(\theta)) \,dx \frac{e^x}{\log(x)}[/itex]
 
[tex]e=mc^2[/tex]
[tex]f=ma[/tex]

Blah, blah, blah

Hey, I don't see the dashes today. Woohoo! (I wonder how long it's been?)
 
latex display size

Is there a way to force this to be displayed bigger:

[tex]{ a^{log_cb} = b^{log_ca}[/tex]

and is there a way to make it clearer that c is a base?
 
Use an \mbox{} to step out of the default format, then use one of the font size commands to set the desired size.

[tex]\mbox{\large a^{\log_cb} = b^{\log_ca}}[/tex]
[tex]\mbox{\Large a^{\log_cb} = b^{\log_ca}}[/tex]
[tex]\mbox{\LARGE a^{\log_cb} = b^{\log_ca}}[/tex]
[tex]\mbox{\huge a^{\log_cb} = b^{\log_ca}}[/tex]
[tex]\mbox{\Huge a^{\log_cb} = b^{\log_ca}}[/tex]

Whoops, I forgot to tell you I fixed that... :redface:

Wow, I'd like to be involved in this but all those formulas are greek to me, the symbols.
I can't handle stuff like that, throughout school I was always daydreaming. I did well on the tests because I understood not because I studied. Eventually that was way to much for me though. But I never gave up on physics. I stuck to the theoretical side, there are many things left to prove. My mind always focused on the vastness of space, it's intricisies(sp?) It's explained and it's not. Since I heard E=mc2 I never doubted it. I took it as fact and thought about what it could mean. Where it's explanation stopped, and it's implications began.

So, Sorry I can't give any cool input on your thread chroot :) :P

I really appreciate your thought into mine though. Because like I said my math isn't as advanced as yours. I would never be able to prove anything if I can't get someone to help me.
 
We're not discussing anything in this thread, PRyckman. It started as a tutorial of PF's LaTeX math typesetting, and turned into a test thread. People are just posting random equations to learn how the typesetting works.

yes i read the first 20 posts or so only and last 5 or 10
 
Why is this fraction not displaying correctly?

[tex]\mbox{\Huge B = \frac{1}{15} }[/tex]
 
[tex] \newcount\n<br /> \n=1<br /> \def\abc#1{<br /> \ifnum\n<#1<br /> \the\n \par<br /> \advance\n by 1<br /> \abc{#1}<br /> \fi<br /> }<br /> \abc{10}[/tex]

[tex]\Huge B = \frac{1}{15}[/tex]

Ehehehe.

[tex]\mbox{\Huge \frac{U_4^{T_1}}{\frac {M_0}{P_v(M_4)}}}[/tex]
