Studydroid 1.7

Posted by admin on May 24, 2009 under Uncategorized | 2 Comments to Read

Hey everyone,

I just uploaded StudyDroid 1.7 to the market. It includes:
-Trackball scrolling for longer cards
-Username memory

As usual report any bugs or errors you encounter in the bugs forum.

This is the last update I’m going to release until I start working on the “Summer of Studying” in a few weeks. For now I need to study for my finals while all you kids on the semester system enjoy your summer vacation. Cool

TeX Support

Posted by admin on May 5, 2009 under News | 5 Comments to Read

Hey everyone,

The website can now offer Tex support through combination of our image card system and MimeTeX*. To make a math card, create a new blank image card, and instead of uploading an image, type [TEX] (case sensitive) followed by the the TeX code. For Example [TEX]a^2+b^2=c^2. StudyDroid will run the TeX script through MimeTeX and make an image card of the formula.

This feature is currently in beta and might be buggy. So please post any questions or comments you have.

LaTeX is a special formatting language for formatting math formulas and other hard to recreate symbols. For more information on LaTeX check out http://www.latex-project.org/or the wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX

*MimeTeX is a cgi script version of LaTeX. There are some minor differences, but the average user shouldn’t notice any difference on simple TeX. for more information on MimeTeX check out http://www.forkosh.com/mimetex.html
