    WHen I purchased my computer with Math Input, the sales person said it would help solves math problems. Fast forward a couple years and I need to help my kids with problems I dont remember.

    Does this solve problems? If not, do you know where I might go to check my kids work? Old Dad that doesnt remember.

    How do you tell it where to print the equation? Insert just results in everything going blank

    For this need too much time. iPad probably has better mathematics keyboard 🙁 for android and windows I cant found nothing 🙁

    I am finding this leaves something to be desired when it comes to recognizing my handwriting. I wish there was a way to train math input just like I have with handwriting input.

    Nice tutorial. didn’t know this facility exists in Windows.
    A bit slow method though. I’d prefer writing equations using equation editor in windows though.

    Having same problem, could not able to insert equation.

    The whole Equation format for windows 7 seems to have a sharp learning curve. It takes a while to get the hang of it. Especially when the formats are as simple as exponent, subscript, multiply, divide, add, subtract; the equation format seems to make the process very complex without contributing anything of substance.

    Math is too important to have such a sharp learning curve. I appreciate the $20 calculator that Microsoft offers, truly a help in understanding math concepts.

    This program doesn’t seem to trust me when I try to do discrete mathematical equations. I try to put in the and symbol, and when I go to correct it from whatever it gives me, it won’t let me change it (despite giving said symbol as an option).

    I also have the same problem. What is not being relayed is that the Insert did not work at all. When pressing Insert the following error is displayed:

    “Item not Collected – Format not supported by Office Clipboard.”

    Consequently Ctrl-V will not paste the expression into any application because it never got into the Clipboard.

    I have Office 2002.

    I have an HP tablet tx 2000 that I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from windows Vista. I am a math education major so I often have to use equation editor, but I also can’t afford to upgrade to word 2007 or 2010. I have read in other forums that the Math input panel will work with Open Office, but when I downloaded it and tried to use the input panel to insert math into an open office document, nothing happened, is there something else I need to be doing, or does open office not actually support mathML?
    thanks

    I like the tool, but I also like my Office 2003 ;(
    I think the WordPad of Win7 should capture the output, so I could copy it to my Office2003-Documents.

    Love it , its much easier to use compared to micro Eqn . A wonderful program in win7 ! A suggestion would be to allow us to include basic signs or make amendments with the keyboard whenever possible at the top section .

  • Christopher King says:

    I would prefer this program to be more similar to the calculator program, as well as doing what it is designed for now.

  • Paul Topping says:

    Math Input Panel can be used with the current version of MathType. The next version of MathType, 6.6 to be released around the time of the Windows 7 release, will add an Insert Handwritten Math command that integrated the Math Input Panel feature directly.
