Figure 252: Symbols catalog—used for entering Greek characters and
some special symbols.
For this example we will suppose that:
• We want to enter the above formula (the value of pi rounded to 5 decimal
places).
• We know the name of the Greek character (pi).
• But we do not know the markup associated with the
symbol.
Step 1: Type % followed by the text pi. This displays the Greek character
.
Step 2: Open the Elements window (View > Elements).
Step 3: The
symbol is a relation, so we click on the Relations button. If you hover
the mouse over this button you see the tooltip Relations (Figure 253).
Figure 254 shows the Elements window after clicking the Relations button. The
symbol we want is circled.
