Hello there, while working with (<3) SMath Studio, I missed some functions that could be very useful for me in writing tasks for other students. - change the size of footer and header. - while setting dot for comma, after typing comma a multiplication appears. Would be nice if, after typing comma here, the dot comma appears. In the opposite way it works. - !insert indices and potencies in normal text! - typing more boolean alike without that irritating clips to appear After doing this for a while, it gets really annoying - the area name should also appear at the end of the area shouldnt it? And if I could close an area at the end of it too, that would be great. thanks for reading

- !insert indices and potencies in normal text! You have that from the Writer region.
- typing more boolean alike without that irritating clips to appear. Smath brackets differently than other, more conventional script style. Personally, I prefer Smath convention.
- change the size of footer and header. Header/Footer have legal authority in native Windows. Why do you want to freak the law ?
Multiplication exists in 3 styles [2*ln(x), 2.ln(x), implicit 2ln(x) Smath style is unique 2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9=362880 Implicit style is confusing. coma [,] or [;] for arguments separators.
What is an area ? In Smath, you insert an area to collapse math/text/image ... regions.

BTW, if neeeded, in Custom functions there is a set of functions that wraps ternary comparisons: Edited by user 04 December 2018 03:17:21(UTC)

just a request >_> Maybe we forget about that. Originally Posted by: Jean Giraud Multiplication exists in 3 styles [2*ln(x), 2.ln(x), implicit 2ln(x) Smath style is unique 2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9=362880 Implicit style is confusing. coma [,] or [;] for arguments separators.
I should explain that with a picture. Originally Posted by: Jean Giraud What is an area ? In Smath, you insert an area to collapse math/text/image ... regions.

Now I understand. Thanks for the Information.

Hi. Or can hack the sm file deleting where "(" appears: HackingEqual.sm (4kb) downloaded 55 time(s).Best regards. Alvaro.

Copy paste or changing the content doesn´t work unfortunately. Is it difficult to do that or is there an easy way?

Hi G-Tate. Difficult. I edit the sm file with a text editor and delete the "bracket" lines: Best regards. Alvaro.

But of course not the real solution. Originally Posted by: Jean Giraud The style you are looking for, i.e: multiple = without bracket was the style Smath 5346. The bracket style appeared SMath 6179.

Thanks Jean, I unterstand that. You see, it was just a request and I could spare some time being able to have an operator with the possibility to have multiple "=" to set some defintions. With the trick from Razonar I will be fine for now, if searching and deleting the bracket lines doesnt gets to costly. Thank you guys.

Hi. I agree with the solution of force parenthesis for equals and inequalities, because it's true that can introduce errors in it's absence. But for users that want something more flexible, Mathcad have the option to write "f(x,y)" as "x f y". The use of extra parenthesis for this notation was unnecessary because is reserved for represent some special cases, more like a math equation editor more than a math calculator. There are another equal sign in the unicode fonts: ꞊ , which is A78Ah. Defining ꞊(a,b ) : = a≡b one can write with the new notation x ꞊ y ꞊ z ꞊ t. Also it could be very interesting to have two more buttons: "f sub x" for f(x) and "f sub x,y" for f(x,y). For example, with "f sub x" you can write successions terms in the usual way, a[n], instead a(n), or define some interesting for partial derivatives, deltas, nablas, sums, products ... ∂ ∆ ∏ ∑ with one or two subscripts.
Best regards Alvaro.
