| <h3>How do I change the color of a subformula?</h3> |
| <P>You can use the color command as follows:</P> |
| <UL> |
| <LI><KBD>color red ABC </KBD>typesets <FONT COLOR="#ff0000">ABC</FONT>. |
| </UL> |
| <P>There are eight different colors to choose from:</P> |
| <UL> |
| <LI><KBD>white</KBD>, <KBD>black</KBD>, <KBD>cyan</KBD>, <KBD>magenta</KBD>, |
| <KBD>red</KBD>, <KBD>blue</KBD>, <KBD>green</KBD>, <KBD>yellow</KBD>. |
| </UL> |
| <P>You can apply a color to an entire subformula if you group it with |
| { } or other brackets. Example:</P> |
| <UL> |
| <LI>Enter<KBD> A B color green {C D} E </KBD>to typeset AB<FONT COLOR="#00ff00">CD</FONT>E. |
| </UL> |
| <P>When several colors are applied, the innermost takes precedence as |
| shown in this example:</P> |
| <UL> |
| <LI>Enter<KBD> color blue {A B color yellow C D} </KBD>to get |
| <FONT COLOR="#0000ff">AB<FONT COLOR="#ffff00">C</FONT>D</FONT>. |
| </UL> |
| <P>You cannot select the background color; a <I>Math</I> formula is |
| always transparent. This means that it inherits the background color |
| from the document (for example a writer document) it is contained in.</P> |
