Complex Math Equations

Hi! I'm creating an Advanced Functions course via Articulate Storyline. Is there a way that I can allow students to type complex mathematical equations in slides or maybe at least insert a part where they could draw the equation? 

Thanks!

  • Hi RandomEgg!

    Glad to see the community has been helping you!

    I just wanted to share that we're tracking a feature request for support of mathematical equations in Storyline. I've included your voice in the request and will update this discussion if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.

    That sounds like a great approach! A drag-and-drop equation builder with adjustable values could work really well for this project. Using text entry for references is a smart idea to make it more interactive and flexible. Thanks for sharing your experience—it definitely gives some useful direction for building this!

    Hey RandomEgg,

    I created a project similar to this years ago for a different employer, so I'm afraid I don't have a file to share; but what I did was create a sort of equation builder. All of the fancy symbols were available at the bottom of the page as drag and drop items, and then had to be assembled into place. I could imagine a situation where you are using text entry references to adjust values, if any are in play. I hope that helps you get on your way.
