Writing and compiling

Images, figures and charts ​

Add your images, create figures and generate charts from your tables.

Add an image to the project ​

In the Files tab, click +, then Upload files, or drop the image onto the file tree. Keep your images in a folder such as figures/.

Insert a figure ​

Place the cursor where you want it, then Insert > Figure. Fill in the inserted template:

latex
\begin{figure}[t]
  \centering
  \includegraphics[width=0.8\linewidth]{figures/setup.png}
  \caption{Experimental setup.}
  \label{fig:setup}
\end{figure}

Then refer to it in the text with \ref{fig:setup}. If a document uses \includegraphics without loading graphicx, the assistant adds it when it edits the document.

Generate a chart from a table ​

Select a tabular table in the editor, then use Chart from table (+ menu of the input box, under Tools). Choose the chart type and a title, then Generate chart. The resulting image is added to the project and, if you want, inserted as a figure. See AI tools in the editor.

Turn an image into LaTeX ​

Have an equation or a table as a screenshot? Image to LaTeX rewrites it as LaTeX code. See AI tools in the editor.

Find a photo ​

Ask the assistant for a royalty-free photo: it finds it, checks it and inserts it with its credit. See Photos from the web.

Find the figures of the PDF ​

In the PDF preview, More > Figures lists the images of the compiled document.
