Answer 19

No like this \(\hi\)

Answer 20

\ (\ \) <--- like that only without the space

Answer 21

how do i make it big and with color? @e.mccormick

Answer 22

Jane, you can user the \(\text{`}\) on the key with the ~ to comment out the code. Just put one before and after: `\(` tada!

Answer 23

@jane11509 , you can use ` to make the grey boxes..
`hello`

Answer 24

Beat me to it ^ xD

Answer 25

Plan, you use size commands for big:
\large
\Large
\LARGE
\huge
\Huge

You use the color comand for colors
\color{red}{some text}

Answer 26

/color{red}{hi}

Answer 27

Put that together and I can do:

`\(\Large\color{red}{some~text}\)` makes \(\Large\color{red}{some~text}\)

Note the ~ became a space.

Answer 28

:l

Answer 29

\(\huge {\color{Red} C}{\color{Cyan} o}{\color{DarkOrange} o}{\color{Magenta} l}~~{\color{Pink} K}{\color{Purple} i}{\color{Red} d}{\color{Green} !}\)
@PlanSlam

Answer 30

Plan, see how mine starts with `\(` and ends with `\)` and all the special commands are between? That is what makes it work.

Answer 31

http://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php

I used this when I started \(\LaTeX\) and now I know most of the codes by \(\color{pink}{\heartsuit}\) :D

Answer 32

/(/huge {/color{blue}hi}/)

Answer 33

You did the \ the wrong direction. It is the pne with the | not the ?.

Answer 34

`\(\huge {\color{blue}hi}\)` would make \(\huge {\color{blue}hi}\)

I think you want:
`\(\huge\color{blue}{hi}\)` \(\huge\color{blue}{hi}\)

\(\ddot\smile\)

Answer 35

{\color{Blue}hi }

Answer 36

i forgot the /(

Answer 37

`\(`

Answer 38

\(

Answer 39

Yah, that and `\)` around it. Getting closer!

Answer 40

yes

on the key board its they key on top of the enter key. Well on my sony... idk about you guys :3

Answer 41

\({\color{Blue}hi }/)

Answer 42

hmm

Answer 43

\({\color{Blue}hi}/)

Answer 44

Still did one slash wrong.

Answer 45

http://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php Use this until you get the hang of it. That's how I began. :)

Answer 46

is there a video to see?

Answer 47

Even with codecogs you need to add the start and end characters here.

`$$\large Wheee!$$` $$\large Wheee!$$

Yes, there is video on that other post I linked.

Answer 49

no @e.mccormick

Answer 50

\[gi\]

Answer 51

YESSS!

Answer 52

Thx!!! @e.mccormick and @Joel_the_boss ! :)

Answer 53

\[{\color{Green} hi}\]

Answer 54

i did it!

Answer 55

It does not show that by default. You end up telling it that. And it does [ ], which is not good for inline. So you still end up needing to do it yourself one way or the other.

Answer 56

No problem \(\large \color{blue}{amigo}\)

Answer 57

\(\Huge\color{VIOLET}{GREAT JOB!!!}\)

Answer 58

\[No...\]

Answer 59

how do i make it biger? @Joel_the_boss

Answer 60

Put \Large in front.
`\(\Large No...\)` \(\Large No...\)

Answer 61

put huge or large

Answer 62

how do i do it on http://www.codecogs.com/latex/eqneditor.php

Answer 63

It is right below the edit window. Where it lists the pt size.

Answer 64

\[\huge {\color{Blue} WELCOME.TO.OPESTUDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!}\]

Answer 65

wait can anyone tell me how to do the box thing? i mean like typing the code itself without it changing

Answer 66

\(\text{`\\(`}\) makes `\(`. It uses the accent on the key that has the ~.
