Graphical Equation
The Graphical Equation editor allow you to choose symbols and templates from a toolbar, combining them with variables and numbers that you write in to create an equation or expression.
...
The symbols and templates are sorted into tabs based on their mathematical similarities. For full documentation on how to use this tool, see https://docs.wiris.com/mathtype/en/user-interfaces/mathtype-web-interface/using-mathtype.html .
LaTeX Equation
While there may be use cases for using this editor, LaTeX users will likely get more utility and flexibility by entering their LaTeX code inline with the rest of their LEARN page content. See the #LaTeX+ LaTeX Inline section for more information on how to enter LaTeX code inline.
...
The resulting equation will always be placed on it’s own line and centre it.
MathML Equation
Regardless of what type of editor you use to create your math, almost all math on the web is converted to the MathML language when it is displayed to end users in its final form (even the other equation editors described here do this when the page is being displayed). However, most content creators do not code MathML code from scratch. This editor is typically used when you have been given MathML code from another source that you need to insert into your page.
...
Chemistry Equation
This editor is similar to the Graphical Equation editor. The primary difference is that the first tab of tools has been replaced with commonly used symbols in chemistry equations. Furthermore, the formatted version of the equation will use spacing common to chemistry equations, and will not italicize text by default. For full documentation on how to use this tool, see https://docs.wiris.com/mathtype/en/user-interfaces/mathtype-web-interface/using-mathtype.html .
