Equation box

The equation box allows equations to easily be rendered anywhere in your visualisations. It uses KaTeX which is very similar to LaTeX in syntax.

An example of the equation box both without and with styling.

Default: true

Description: Determines if the blue box is drawn around the edge of the component, or if it is just rendered as plain text.

Equation

Type: String

Default: 'f({x}) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty\hat f(\xi)\,e^{2 \pi i \xi x}\,d\xi'

The blue is chosen to fit with the general ImpVis blue theme.
