@please_help1 come over here

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

What do you know already?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Nothing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol im here

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Ok, you always have to start with `\(` and end with `\)`

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

mine don't tilt that way: /

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

above the enter key

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

/ see

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

ohhh

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

yep :)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(large\thank\you\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It took me awhile to learn this

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

oops

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

haha don't worry @horsegirl27 you will learn :)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(thanks\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sleepyjess remember when you and @k_lynn helped me?

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

yay!

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Good. I made one thing myself^^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can yu teach me some other time ttyl i have to do school

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

:D \(yay\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Now, there are sizes, give me just a minute to get them

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

yep @King_Trae_OKC that was just a few days ago.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ttyl

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

How do I make sentences and change color and stuff and font and size

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah and after that i spent 3 hours trying out different fonts and sizes and colors haha

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

ok @sleepyjess

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(Took~me~awhile~lmao\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(haha\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(how do you spacelol\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Ok, sizes: \(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @thomaster \(\hspace{80pt}\Huge\sf \color{#730000}{Change\ Sizes}\) In \(\LaTeX\) on OpenStudy, we can use a few different text sizes. The syntax for this is \(\bf\color{red}{\backslash(}\color{green}{\backslash size~}\color{blue}{text}\color{red}{\backslash)}\) (don't forget the space after the size tag) For \(\sf\color{green}{\backslash size}\) we can use the following 9 sizes: \(\begin{array}{ll} \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash tiny}&\Large\to\sf\tiny ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash scriptsize}&\Large\to\sf\scriptsize ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash small}&\Large\to\sf\small ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash normalsize}&\Large\to\sf\normalsize ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash large}&\Large\to\sf\large ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash Large}&\Large\to\sf\Large ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash LARGE}&\Large\to\sf\LARGE ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash huge}&\Large\to\sf\huge ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \large\sf\color{green}{\backslash Huge}&\Large\to\sf\Huge ABCDEFabcdef123456\\ \end{array}\) You can use more sizes in 1 line. Everytime you introduce a new size text, everything after that will be in that size untill you introduce a new one. So \(\bf\color{red}{\backslash(}\color{green}{\backslash Huge~}\color{blue}{hello}\color{green}{\backslash small~}\color{blue}{every}\color{green}{\backslash LARGE~}\color{blue}{one}\color{red}{\backslash)}\) will output: \(\Huge hello\small every\LARGE one\) \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(Buh~its~fun~to~do~though\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When you make the words.. put a ~ in between each word @horsegirl27

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(oh~thanks\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

For spaces you can either use \ (space) or ~

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(this~is~fun\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\huge\scr\{ff1ff1}\Lol\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(huge\scr\{ff1ff1}\Lol\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I forgot that fast

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

There are other spaces, but I prefer to use ~ or \hspace, hspace lets you customize your spacing, that is how I got the welcome to be like it is

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

`\(\huge\scr\color{ff1ff1}Lol\)`

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(hello~ everyone~so ~how ~do ~you~change~size? ~I'm~ Confused~:/\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

oh yeah I did it made a longish sentence^^

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

for size you would do \(\size goes here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\huge\scr\color{ff1ff1}Lol\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I put FF1FF1 and its not changing colors

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\large~ hello\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(huge\frak\color{red}\Lol\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?????????

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge~HI!!\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

yay! :D

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

Do ~ instead of \ that's what works on mine

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

don't put a \ before your text

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\size~message

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

That's what I do

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge~hello\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

You can also just do `\(\size message\)`

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Ok, ready to move on to fonts?

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\large~ this~is~fun~how~do~I~change~color?\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge~yes\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

We will get to color after fonts :) I am going in the order that the code has to be in

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\large~let's~do~fonts~first\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge~ok\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @thomaster \(\hspace{80pt}\Huge\sf \color{#730000}{More\ fonts}\) Now this italic text is nice, but we can use way cooler fonts! The syntax for this is: \(\color{red}{\backslash(}\sf\color{green}{\backslash font}\color{blue}{~text }\color{red}{\backslash)}\) \(\sf\color{red}{\backslash(}\color{green}{\backslash bf}\color{blue}{~Hello\sim there!}\color{red}{\backslash)}\) Will become: \( \bf Hello\ there! \) \(\LARGE\sf Fonts\ you\ can\ use:\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash sf} \hspace{19pt} \to ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash tt} \hspace{19pt} \to \tt ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash it} \hspace{21pt} \to \it ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash bf} \hspace{15pt} \to \bf ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash rm} \hspace{10pt} \to \rm ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash cal} \hspace{10pt} \to \cal ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash scr} \hspace{10pt} \to \scr ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\huge\sf\color{green}{\backslash frak} \to \frak ABCDEFabcdef123456\) \(\LARGE\sf There\ are\ 2\ exceptions:\) You need to add braces to these fonts in order to use them, so \(\bf\color{red}{\backslash(}\color{green}{\backslash mathbb\{}\color{blue}{text}\color{green}{\} }\color{red}{\backslash)}\) \(\LARGE\sf\color{green}{\backslash mathbb} \to \mathbb{ ABCDEFabcdef123456}\) \(\LARGE\sf\color{green}{\backslash boldsymbol} \to \boldsymbol{ ABCDEFabcdef123456}\) \(\Large\sf How\ to\ use\ 2\ fonts\ in\ 1\ line:\) When you type \sf, everything after that will become Sans-serif until you introduce another font command. So when you type: \(\color{red}{\backslash(}\sf\color{green}{\backslash sf}\color{blue}{~hello\sim everyone\sim i'm}\color{green}{\backslash cal}\color{blue}{~Thomaster!!}\color{red}{\backslash)}\) It will become: \(\sf hello\ everyone\ i'm\ \cal Thomaster!!\) \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

To do size and font for the same text, do `\(\size\font text goes here\)`

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\large\cal~ ok\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

I did a font!!!!

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

Yay! I personally love frak, a lot of people love cal also. I also use bf a lot.

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge\rm~I~really~like~this\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\huge\frak\color {red}{Hi}\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

I like cal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yay!!! i did it!!

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

and it

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

It looks like you have the hang of font and size now. Now we can do color!

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge\frak~cool!\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge\frak~I~CAN'T~WAIT~FOR~COLORS!!!\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

*i can't wait for colors^^

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

You can use the name of a color or the hexadecimal code for the color, there are only some predefined colors. Of course, from thomaster. \(\begin{array}{|l|l|}\hline \sf\Large predefined\ colors&\sf\Large hexadecimal\\\hline \sf\Large\color{maroon}{maroon}&\sf\Large\color{#FF0000}{\#FF0000}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{brown}{brown}&\sf\Large\color{#FF1700}{\#FF1700}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{red}{red}&\sf\Large\color{#FF2E00}{\#FF2E00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{orangered}{orangered}&\sf\Large\color{#FF4500}{\#FF4500}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{salmon}{salmon}&\sf\Large\color{#FF5C00}{\#FF5C00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{orange}{orange}&\sf\Large\color{#FF7300}{\#FF7300}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{goldenrod}{goldenrod}&\sf\Large\color{#FF7300}{\#FF7300}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{gold}{gold}&\sf\Large\color{#FF8A00}{\#FF8A00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{yellow}{yellow}&\sf\Large\color{#FFA100}{\#FFA100}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{greenyellow}{greenyellow}&\sf\Large\color{#FFB800}{\#FFB800}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{olive}{olive}&\sf\Large\color{#FFCF00}{\#FFCF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{lime}{lime}&\sf\Large\color{#FFE600}{\#FFE600}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{springgreen}{springreen}&\sf\Large\color{#FFFD00}{\#FFFD00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{green}{green}&\sf\Large\color{#FFFF00}{\#FFFF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{forestgreen}{forestgreen}&\sf\Large\color{#E8FF00}{\#E8FF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{seagreen}{seagreen}&\sf\Large\color{#D1FF00}{\#D1FF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{teal}{teal}&\sf\Large\color{#BAFF00}{\#BAFF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{turquoise}{turquoise}&\sf\Large\color{#A3FF00}{\#A3FF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{cyan}{cyan}&\sf\Large\color{#8CFF00}{\#8CFF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{aquamarine}{aquamarine}&\sf\Large\color{#75FF00}{\#75FF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{cadetblue}{cadetblue}&\sf\Large\color{#5EFF00}{\#5EFF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{cornflowerblue}{cornflowerblue}&\sf\Large\color{#19FF00}{\#19FF00}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{royalblue}{royalblue}&\sf\Large\color{#00FF17}{\#00FF17}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{midnightblue}{midnightblue}&\sf\Large\color{#00FF5C}{\#00FF5C}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{navy}{navy}&\sf\Large\color{#00FF8A}{\#00FF8A}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{blue}{blue}&\sf\Large\color{#00FFB8}{\#00FFB8}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{purple}{purple}&\sf\Large\color{#00FFE6}{\#00FFE6}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{blueviolet}{blueviolet}&\sf\Large\color{#00E6FF}{\#00E6FF}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{darkorchid}{darkorchid}&\sf\Large\color{#00CFFF}{\#00CFFF}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{magenta}{magenta}&\sf\Large\color{#00A1FF}{\#00A1FF}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{orchid}{orchid}&\sf\Large\color{#008AFF}{\#008AFF}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{plum}{plum}&\sf\Large\color{#0073FF}{\#0073FF}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{grey}{grey}&\sf\Large\color{#005CFF}{\#005CFF}\\\hline \sf\Large\color{tan}{tan}&\sf\Large\color{#0045FF}{\#0045FF}\\\hline \sf thanks\ to\ \href{/users/kymber}{@kymber}\ for\\\sf the\ predefined\ color\ list&\sf\Large\color{#0017FF}{\#0017FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#0200FF}{\#0200FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#3000FF}{\#3000FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#4700FF}{\#4700FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#7500FF}{\#7500FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#8C00FF}{\#8C00FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#A300FF}{\#A300FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#BA00FF}{\#BA00FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#D100FF}{\#D100FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#E800FF}{\#E800FF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#FF00CF}{\#FF00CF}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#FF00A1}{\#FF00A1}\\\hline &\sf\Large\color{#FF008A}{\#FF008A}\\\hline \end{array}\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(how~do~you~do~colors?\)

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

And to use all 3 in the same text, `\(\size\font\color{color goes here}{text goes here}\)`. Putting in `\(\LARGE\frak\color{#00FFB8}{sleepyjess}\)` will give \(\LARGE\frak\color{#00FFB8}{sleepyjess}\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

\(\huge\it\#00FE6~horsegirl27\)

OpenStudy (horsegirl27):

hmm... explain color more
