[Solved] Problem with Integrals

[Gustav Mahler]

Dear users,
I've a problem with the symbol of integration, and I imagine that it's a common matter among people editing scientific text: if you insert an integral and its argument is a "tall" function (i.e. a fraction), the symbol of integral doesn't resize and it is not pleasant at all. Is there the way to use that symbol like a bracket, so that it becomes lagrer and smaller depending on the dimension of its argument? Thanks.

It seems that it can't be done automatically. There is an enhancement request for that : Issue 45511 - Integral sign too small and not scalable.

You can use the size parameter, see these examples :

Code: Select all

y = int from a to b x sup 2 dx newline
newline
y = {size *1.8 int {}} csub a csup b {x sup 2 over {1-sqrt(x)}} dx newline
newline
y = {size *2.8 int {}} csub a csup b {{x sup 2} over {a - x} over {1-sqrt(1 over x)}} dx
