The Math Panel is a convenient way to enter symbols or to perform many complicated Mathed functions. Many of these functions can be accomplished from the keyboard or the Edit Math or Insert Math menus. However, we're going to concentrate on using the Math Panel, just to let you know what's out there; you can learn keyboard shortcuts later, from other manuals. So open it using Insert Math Math Panel now and leave it open while reading this section.
Right-clicking on a formula will open the Math Panel for you.
