Question

Can anyone teach me some basic tips?? I'm just curious lol

Answer 1

Yes, I can teach you.

Answer 2

The very first thing that you must know is to always start each command with `\(` and then end with `\)`

Answer 3

Here is an example code:
`\(\Large\cal\color{blueviolet}{Hello!}\)`

Answer 4

Okay. I've been looking around. I know a basic way to do one, but every time I post it, it just stays in code form..???

Answer 5

@Whitemonsterbunny17

Answer 6

Can you post what you've got so far so that I can look at it and identify the error?

Answer 7

@Whitemonsterbunny17 \(\color{red}{Natasha}\)

Answer 8

OOOooooh ok. I think I know what I messed up on.

Answer 9

I was using the wrong slash (/) XD

Answer 10

Ah, yeah, that'll do it!
Sometimes I make that mistake too, don't worry. :p

Answer 11

So, now we can experiment with some different sizes and fonts.

\(\Large\rm\color{lime}{~~~~~~Sizes:}\)

` \tiny ` = \(\tiny\rm\color{red}{tiny}\)

` \small ` = \(\small\rm\color{orange}{small}\)

` \normalsize ` = \(\normalsize\rm\color{gold}{normalsize}\)

` \large ` = \(\large\rm\color{lime}{large}\)

` \Large ` = \(\Large\rm\color{cyan}{Large}\)

` \LARGE ` = \(\LARGE\rm\color{cornflowerblue}{LARGE}\)

` \huge ` = \(\huge\rm\color{blueviolet}{huge}\)

Answer 12

@Whitemonsterbunny17 Woooow that's awesome! :P

Answer 13

Thanks! :)
The sizes are the second command to be typed (after your font name, which we will cover next).
For example:
`\(\rm\Large\color{blueviolet}{Whitemonsterbunny17}\)`
^

Answer 14

@Whitemonsterbunny17 Okay. And thanks a lot for the help! :)

Answer 15

You're welcome!

Here are the fonts:

Answer 16

\(\Large\bf\color{blueviolet}{~~~~~~~~Fonts:}\)



` \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 ` = \(\Large\frak\color{blue}{Example}\)

` \mathbb ` = \(\Large\mathbb{\color{blueviolet}{EXAMPLE}}\)

\(\normalsize\rm\color{red}{Note:~Mathbb~is~a~special~case,~instructions~are~below:}\)

\(\normalsize\rm\color{magenta}{A~bracket~must~be~placed~after~the~fontname~and~before~the~end~command.}\)

\(\normalsize\rm\color{magenta}{Example:}\) `\(\Large\mathbb{\color{blueviolet}{EXAMPLE}}\)`

\(\normalsize\rm\color{magenta}{Also~note~that~mathbb~only~changes~capitalized~letters~and~numbers.}\)

Answer 17

It gets even \(\large\mathbb{\color{purple}{COOLER}}\) !! XD

Answer 18

Wow! That looks awesome! :)
You're doing great!

Now, if you want to write a sentence with multiple words, just use ~ to insert a normal space.

Answer 19

Example:
`\(\large\rm\color{blueviolet}{Hello,~I~am~bunny!}\)`
Which makes:
\(\large\rm\color{blueviolet}{Hello,~I~am~bunny!}\)

Answer 20

Sweet!! Does this work if you're typing in a word processor like Word and stuff?

Answer 21

No, it only works here and on a few other sources that have a LaTeX render.

Answer 22

For here, it's really helpful to use when teaching, as it makes it easier to highlight certain words or give a more visual teaching experience.

Answer 23

Okay, gotcha :)

Answer 24

You can go ahead and try experimenting and practicing if you'd like. Practice makes perfect! :)

Answer 25

@Whitemonsterbunny17 Okay I will. Again, thanks for all the help ^-^
