Choosing the Right Math Style

Math Style Settings Explained

	If you want to	Edit the
	Make the argument larger or smaller	Argument panel>Scale H/V field
	Make the fence characters narrower or wider	Left Delimiter/Right Delimiter panels>Scale H field
	Make the fence characters extend higher above the argument	Argument panel>Offset:Above Field
	Make the fence characters extend lower below the argument	Argument panel>Offset:Below Field
	Make the space before the argument larger or smaller	Argument panel>Offset:Left field
	Make the space after the argument larger or smaller	Argument panel>Offset:Right field
	Make the space before the fenced expression larger or smaller	Left Delimiter panel>Offset:Left field
	Make the space after the fenced expression larger or smaller	Right Delimiter panel>Offset:Right field
	Make the height of the fence characters consistant across multiple square root expressions (make it ignore the height of the argument)	Argument panel>Asc field
	Make the bottom of the fence characters consistant across multiple square root expressions (make it ignore the height of the argument)	Argument panel>Desc field
	Change the fence characters to be different characters (see Notes for details)	Left Delimiter/Right Delimiter Panels>Insert field

Notes:

1.To create choice expressions that use different fence characters, edit the Left/Right Delimiter>Insert fields.

To get:	Use these values:
[AB]	91 and 93
{AB}	123 and 125
|AB|	124 and 124
<AB>	60 and 62

1. The height of the fence characters is based on the height of the argument. With the default settings this can result in the fence characters being a different height from one fenced expression to another. Notice in the image below how the height of the fence characters changes based on the height of the argument.

To make the fence the same size across multiple fenced expressions edit the Argument panel>Asc or Argument panel>Desc fields.
