50g - edit existing equation in EQW Message #1 Posted by Adam Price on 26 Oct 2007, 12:52 a.m. Suppose I have entered a long, complex equation with equation writer and tried it out with a known case and found that it is functioning as expected. I would like to take another look at the equation from within EQW - since it looks so nice there. How do I reopen it for editing? I know how to edit it as a standard line of text, but that EQW is so enticing! (50g)

Personally, I find it easier to edit algebraic objects in the command line editor, although I do like the equation writer for viewing algebraic objects. Regards, James
