It is absolutely imperative that you always start with `\(` and end with `\)`.

Answer 5

I think I did it wrong..

Answer 6

It's okay, we'll get into more so you can fix it. ^.^

Answer 7

\(hi/)

Answer 8

Lol I''m terrible

Answer 9

The next thing to learn is how to choose the size.

The sizes are:

\scriptsize
\tiny
\small
\normalsize
\large
\Large
\LARGE
\huge

The size would be the first command.
`\(\Large\bf\color{red}{Hello}\)`

I'll be online tomorrow, so just PM me when you wanna continue. :p

Answer 11

And for when you're back online, here's the list of the things we'll be going over:

\(\huge\mathbb{\color{black}{INDEX:}}\) \(\hspace{-80pt}\huge\mathbb{\color{red}{I}\color{gold}{N}\color{lime}{D}\color{cyan}{E}\color{blueviolet}{X}\color{purple}{:}}\)

\(\huge\color{red}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{red}{Basic~Command~Placement}}\) \(\huge\color{red}{⍚}\)
\(\huge\color{gold}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{gold}{Sizes}}\) \(\huge\color{gold}{⍚}\)
\(\huge\color{lime}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{lime}{Fonts}}\) \(\huge\color{lime}{⍚}\)
\(\huge\color{cyan}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{cyan}{Colors}}\) \(\huge\color{cyan}{⍚}\)
\(\huge\color{blueviolet}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{blueviolet}{Spacing}}\) \(\huge\color{blueviolet}{⍚}\)
\(\huge\color{purple}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{purple}{Special~Characters}}\) \(\huge\color{purple}{⍚}\)
\(\huge\color{orchid}{⍚}\) \(\Large\mathbb{\color{orchid}{Other~Fun~Extras}}\) \(\huge\color{orchid}{⍚}\)

Answer 12

"Special Characters" ?

Answer 13

What do you mean?

Answer 14

\(\heartsuit\) \(\diamondsuit\) \(\star\) \(\bigstar\) and more :p
Also how to make things like my bunnies. ^.^

Answer 16

\(\huge\color{red}{◈}\) \(\huge\bf\color{red}{Basic~Command~Placement}\) \(\huge\color{red}{◈}\)


\(\cal\color{black}{Here~is~a~breakdown~of~the~following~code,~which~appears~as:}\)


\(\Large\bf\color{red}{Hello!}\)
`\(\Large\bf\color{red}{Hello!}\)`

The " `\Large` " in this code is the selected size command. Size commands always go first.
V
`\(\Large\bf\color{red}{Hello!}\)`

Next is the font command. For this specific command, the font is " `\bf` ".
V
`\(\Large\bf\color{red}{Hello!}\)`

After the font command, you can insert the color command. In this instance, I chose red by inserting the color word into the brackets, like so:
" `\color{red}` "
V
`\(\Large\bf\color{red}{Hello!}\)`

After choosing your color, you can insert your text into the brackets. In this code, the text is " `{Hello!}` ", as seen towards the end of the command.

Answer 17

[Hello!]

Answer 18

{Hello!}

Answer 19

Yeah, the text goes in those brackets.
Make sure you include the `\(` at the beginning and the `\)` at the end.

Answer 20

Is this only available on mobile?

Answer 21

No, it works on any device as long as OpenStudy runs on it.

Answer 22

Try this code:
`\(\bf\color{lime}{Hello!}\)`

Answer 23

\(\bf\color{lime}{Hello!}\)

Answer 24

\(\bf\color{blueviolet}{Perfect!}\)

Answer 25

It doesn't turn purple though..

Answer 26

Do you kinda understand how the basic placement works? Or does something still confuse you?
I know, that's because I made mine purple. :p

Answer 27

Nope, I got it.

Answer 28

Okay.
Next, we'll move on to the fonts.
\(\Large\bf\color{blueviolet}{~~~~~~~~Fonts:}\)

` \bf ` = \(\Large\bf\color{red}{Example}\)
` \rm ` = \(\Large\rm\color{orange}{Example}\)
` \tt ` = \(\Large\tt\color{gold}{Example}\)
` \it ` = \(\Large\it\color{lime}{Example}\)
` \cal ` = \(\Large\cal\color{cyan}{Example}\)
` \frak ` = \(\Large\frak\color{blue}{Example}\)
` \scr ` = \(\Large\scr\color{purple}{Example}\)
` \mathbb ` = \(\Large\mathbb{\color{blueviolet}{EXAMPLE}}\)
\(\normalsize\rm\color{red}{Note:~Mathbb~is~a~special~case,~instructions~are~below:}\)
\(\normalsize\rm\color{magenta}{A~bracket~must~be~placed~after~the~fontname~and~before~the~end~command.}\)
\(\normalsize\rm\color{magenta}{Example:}\) `\(\Large\mathbb{\color{blueviolet}{EXAMPLE}}\)`
\(\normalsize\rm\color{magenta}{Also~note~that~mathbb~only~changes~capitalized~letters~and~numbers.}\)

\(\Large\mathbb{\color{blueviolet}{Other~Fun~Things~to~Do~With~Text:}}\)
` \overline ` = \(\Large\bf\color{red}{\overline{Example}}\)
` \underline ` = \(\Large\bf\color{orange}{\underline{Example}}\)
` \overset ` = \(\Large\bf\color{gold}{\overset{\bigstar~\bigstar~\bigstar}{Example}}\)
` \underset ` = \(\Large\bf\color{lime}{\underset{\bigstar~\bigstar~\bigstar}{Example}}\)
` \sideset ` = \(\Large\bf\color{cyan}{\sideset{_\bigstar^\heartsuit}{_\heartsuit^\bigstar}{Example}}\)

\(\normalsize\rm\color{red}{Note:~Right~click~the~\LaTeX~commands,~then~click~Show~Math~As}\)
\(\normalsize\rm\color{red}{~~~~to~see~how~each~works,~as~they~all~have~separate~instructions.}\)

Answer 29

That second part goes along with the "Other Fun Extras".. whoops. :p
