No Width Spaces

Sometimes you need to enter a space so that the equation tool correctly formats your input, but the extra space messes up the output.

 

For example if you need to enter...

you have a problem.  If you enter pirh the equation tool will interpret the rh as rho and produce:

 

clip1267

 

but if you add a space between the r and h, the equation tool will produce:

 

clip1268

 

What you need is a way of stopping the equation tool from treating the rh as one thing.  You need to separate the r and h to stop the character replacement.

 

 

To stop the replacement, type !!  The !! will be used by the equation tool to format your input but will NOT effect the output.
