The grid fit property is used to scale and size math formulas within layout blocks.
?> Fit takes a scaling value. Any value greater than 1 magnifies content. Any value less than 1 shrinks content. A value equal to 1 renders the content at it’s original size. Original size is determined by the theme settings for your slide deck.
The following basic syntax is used to activate a custom fit for math content within a layout block:
@math[drag=width height, drop=x y, fit=scale]
Your MathJax formulas here.
@math
?> For math widget syntax details see the Math Widget Guide.
Where scale can take any value between 0.01 and 99.99. If the fit= property is not specified for a block then the block automatically inherits the default scale of 1.0. A fit value greater than 1.0 magnifies math content. While a fit value less than 1.0 shrinks math content.
The best fit=scale value for your content depends on:
- The math content itself
- The font active for that math content and
- The dimensions of the target block.
Simply experiment with scale values to find the best fit for your math content within the block.
The following sample slide screenshot demonstrates fit= on maths content. The grid layouts block in this example is sized and rotated while the math formula is scaled to fill the block on the slide:
The following sample slide screenshot demonstrates fit= on maths content. Here no grid layouts block is in use. The math formula is simply scaled to size using the fit= property on the math widget:
