LMM 3.5.9 U06 Posted

Sun, 15 Apr 2007 20:49:37 -0400

A couple of fixes, and some new features from LiveMath 3.6 have "bled" in. Specifically:

Background color in comments
See Edit : Comment Background Color
You can only set 1 color for the whole comment, which is usually all you want.
Integration By Parts
Major fix - wow, was it broken. And, the methodology has changed: instead of choosing "dv", which is not natural, you now choose "u", which is much more natural.
Integration by U-Substitution
Originally only for LiveMath 3.6 - the new version in preparation - this feature fell into LiveMath 3.5, and so I just left it there.

Back to work on 3.6.

LMM 3.5.9 U03 Posted

Tue, 20 Jun 2006 14:18:04 -0400

A slight clean up of the Apply command with derivatives and integrals. Also, you may now bypass the "guess the variable" feature by holding down the Shift key while choosing a differential or integral operator during an Apply.

MacTel Universal Binaries

Wed, 8 Feb 2006 10:18:45 -0500

We have the first builds of LiveMath Maker and MathEQ Expression Editor for the new Intel-Based Macintoshes (MacTels).

http://www.livemath.com/osxpreview/ These apps will only work on Mac OSX 10.3.9 or higher, and on the G4, G5, or MacTel computers.

LiveMath Plug-In for these MacTels will take more work, for a variety of reasons, including waiting for the Firefox web browser to go Universal as well.

New Getting Started On-Line Course

Wed, 13 Jul 2005 08:22:59 -0400

A new - free - on-line course has been added to the LiveMath website: "Getting Started in LiveMath". You may enroll for this course, and go through 11 modules on getting started with the LiveMath software. Each module has a Quiz that you can "Hand-In" to the LiveMath team for grading and comments, which will be returned to you in 24-48 hours.

This is a great way to learn LiveMath in a structured environment - just like taking a math course.

LiveMath ActiveX IE Installer

Mon, 4 Jul 2005 13:28:14 -0400

We've posted a new version of the LiveMath ActiveX "IE-Based Installer".

This is the installer that gets run when IE loads a LiveMath webpage for the very first time (if LiveMath ActiveX is not already installed).

You can "force update" your LiveMath ActiveX control by going to the force page:
