VisualEditor/Beta Features/Formulae





Please remember to always review your changes before saving when using experimental features. ''

You can opt-in to a ve>Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor|VisualEditor plug-in that lets you create and edit mathematical formulae as part of the beta>Special:MyLanguage/Beta Features|Beta Features programme. This is to gather feedback from users ahead of making it available for all VisualEditor users, once it is more polished.

Once opted-in, you will get a new item in the "More" section of the toolbar, currently labelled "Formulae" and showing a Sigma as its icon ("Σ"). Similarly, existing formulae will now get a Sigma icon when you select them.

Clicking the icon will pop up an inspector to insert a new formula or edit the existing one, which takes a LaTeX expression (like the existing   system – for example, enter "e^{i\pi}" or "f(x)=3^x"), and updates the image of the formula.

If you have any feedback about editing formulae, please comment on the discussion page with your concerns, queries or suggestions.
