OpenStudy (xmoses1):

I have decided that I am going to learn LaTeX!! I am just not sure where to start...

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

/(Frac{1}{2}/)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

dang it... that did not work

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

oh wait! I know what id did. /frac {1} {2}

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

shoot!! /frac{1}{2}

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

@thomaster why cant i get it to work!! :(

thomaster (thomaster):

\(\frac{1}{2}\)

thomaster (thomaster):

you're not using the right slash... it's \

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

why wont mine work?

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

ohhhhh

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

ok i cant find that slash on my keyboard

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

oh wait i found it \

thomaster (thomaster):

`\( \frac {1} {1} \)`

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\frac{1}{2}

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \frac {1} {2} \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Ah ha!!

thomaster (thomaster):

\(\sf\huge \color{red}{C} \color{orange}{o} \color{yellow}{n} \color{green}{g} \color{Blue}{r} \color{Purple}{a} \color{red}{t} \color{orange}{u} \color{yellow}{l} \color{green}{a} \color{blue}{t} \color{purple}{i} \color{red}{o} \color{orange}{n} \color{yellow}{s} \color{green}{!} \color{blue}{!} \color{purple}{!}\)

OpenStudy (tester97):

I to am interested in LaTeX it seems fun :)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\sf\huge \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{a} \color{green}{n} \color{Blue}{k} \color{Purple}{s} \color{red}{!} \color{orange}{!} \color{yellow}{!}

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Ah shooot... oh well it was worth a try lol

thomaster (thomaster):

looks like you forget the `\(` and `\)` every time

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

It is a little frustrating though lol the only thing that i successfully made was \( \frac {1} {2} \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

oh!!

OpenStudy (tester97):

i wonder if this will work for me \sf\huge \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{i} \color{green}{s} \color{Blue}{i} \color{Purple}{s} \color{red}{a} \color{orange}{t} \color{yellow}{e} \color{green}{s} \color{blue}{t} \color{green}{!} \color{blue}{!} \color{purple}{!}

OpenStudy (tester97):

Ahh darn i guess not

thomaster (thomaster):

take your stuff put a \( in front of it. then end with a `\)` ``` \( \sf\huge \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{a} \color{green}{n} \color{Blue}{k} \color{Purple}{s} \color{red}{!} \color{orange}{!} \color{yellow}{!} \) ```

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\Huge\color{gold}\circ\) \(\Huge\color{gold}\circ\) \(\Huge\color{gold}\smile\) \(\Huge\color{gold}\bowtie\)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \sf\huge \) \( \color{red}{T} \) \( \color{orange}{h} \) \( \color{yellow}{a} \) \( \color{green}{n} \) \( \color{Blue}{k} \) \( \color{Purple}{s} \) \( \color{red}{!} \) \( \color{orange}{!} \) \( \color{yellow}{!} \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

that doesnt look right -_- lol

thomaster (thomaster):

\( \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{a} \color{green}{n} \color{Blue}{k} \color{Purple}{s} \color{red}{!} \color{orange}{!} \color{yellow}{!} \)

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\Huge\color{gold}\circ\) \(\Huge\color{gold}\circ\) \(\Huge\color{gold}\smile\) \(\Huge\color{gold}\bowtie\) \(\Huge\color{black}\dagger\)

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

he'll kill alla yall

thomaster (thomaster):

@xmoses1 you don't have to put every letter between `\(` and `\)` xD

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

why does mine go down lol i cant figure it out based on your TeX Command

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Oh so that is why it went down lol

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \sf\huge \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{a} \color{green}{n} \color{Blue}{k} \color{Purple}{s} \color{red}{!} \color{orange}{!} \color{yellow}{!} \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Ah ha!!

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

how do you use the \colorbox code?

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \small\HI \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

what the heck \( \small {Hi} \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

there we go :P

thomaster (thomaster):

you can't use \colorbox on openstudy. however you can use bounding boxes like this: \(\bbox[5pt, #33fd33 ,border:5px solid #872af0]{\LARGE\bf \LaTeX\sf\ is\ fun\ :P}\)

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\huge\color{black}\zeta\) \(\huge\color{black}\swarrow\) how?

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

ohh \bbox

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

id remember how to use dem :P

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\bbox [5pt, #aa8844] {\LARGE \bf \ i\sf \ remember\ :P}\)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \Huge\LaTeX is Hard \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

that took me forever!

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\huge\color{brown}\odot\)\(\huge\color{brown}\odot\) \(\huge\color{brown}\smile\)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \color {purple} T \color {purple} h \color {purple} o \color {purple} m \color {purple} a \color {purple} s \color {purple} t \color {purple} e \color {purple} r \color {pink} : \color {pink} p \)

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

@thomaster Look what i made!

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \color {red} e \color {purple} . \color {yellow} m \color {green} c \color {orange} c \color {blue} o \color {brown} r \color {pink} m \color {black} i \color {gray} c \color {tan} k \) @e.mccormick I made this for you!

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

Thanks @thomaster for helping me figure this out it is so much fun :)

OpenStudy (tester97):

Maybe it will work this time :) \(\sf\huge \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{i} \color{green}{s} \color{Blue}{i} \color{Purple}{s} \color{red}{a} \color{orange}{t} \color{yellow}{e} \color{green}{s} \color{blue}{t} \color{green}{!} \color{blue}{!} \color{purple}{!}\)

OpenStudy (tester97):

:O it kinda worked for me

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

haha I havnt figure out how to space words out like that yet xD

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\bbox [5pt, #006644 ,border:5px solid #aa8866 ] {\LARGE\bf\color \ Woop\ \ Woop}\)

thomaster (thomaster):

\(\huge\bf\color{red}{★}\ \sf\Large\color{#d8b700}{Xmoses1}\ \huge\bf\color{red}{★}\)

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

how do you change the color of the writing?

thomaster (thomaster):

`\(\color{#d8b700}{Xmoses1}\)`

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

u put that after the whole command?

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

\( \huge\bf\color{red}{★}\) \(\sf\Large\color{#d8b700}{Thomaster :P}\) \(\huge\bf\color{red}{★}\)

thomaster (thomaster):

that is the whole command \color{ `color` }{ `text` }

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

\(\bbox [5pt, #006644 ,border:5px solid #aa8866 ] {\LARGE\bf\color \ Woop\ \ Woop}\) how to change the color of woop woop ROFL :D

thomaster (thomaster):

\(\huge\sf\color{red}{\overbrace{\underbrace{\color{blue}{~~Woop~Woop~:D~~}}}}\)

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

'tis a blackboard

OpenStudy (xmoses1):

or a pool table

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

oh yea lol

OpenStudy (tester97):

let me try again with spaces xD \(\sf\huge \color{red}{T} \color{orange}{h} \color{yellow}{i} \color{green}{s}\) \(\sf\huge\color{Blue}{i} \color{Purple}{s}\) \(\color{red}{a}\) \(\color{orange}{t} \color{yellow}{e} \color{green}{s} \color{blue}{t}\)

thomaster (thomaster):

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):

thomaster (thomaster):

\(\bbox [20pt, #006644 ,border:6px solid #aa8866]{\color{white}{\Huge \frac{1}{\Bigl(\sqrt{\phi \sqrt{5}}-\phi\Bigr) e^{\frac25 \pi}} = 1+\frac{e^{-2\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-4\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-6\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-8\pi}} {1+\ldots} } } }}}\)

thomaster (thomaster):

Have to admit, the blackboard is a cool idea :P

OpenStudy (blackops2luvr):
