LaTeX equations just got a lot easier!
Live-edit equations with Vexlio
Vexlio natively supports live-edit, true LaTeX equations, right in your diagram. This feature is indispensable for all users who work with mathematical or technical content. Seamlessly integrate LaTeX formulas into your diagrams with precision, style and ease.
Why LaTeX Integration Matters

LaTeX is the gold standard for rendering mathematical notation and technical text. It's used by academics, engineers, scientists, and other professionals who require clean, readable math-heavy text. By providing native LaTeX support, Vexlio bridges the gap between traditional technical content creation and diagramming, making your workflow smoother than ever.
LaTeX in Vexlio
With Vexlio you get:
- Embeddable LaTeX equations. Insert equations into your diagrams just as easily as adding text or shapes.
- Real-time previews. See your equations rendered in real time as you type.
- Fully editable objects. The LaTeX you type is saved along with the rendered output, meaning you can come back and edit it at any time.
- High quality output. Export your diagrams with perfectly rendered LaTeX, ensuring professional-quality results.
How It Works
To insert an equation in your diagram:
- Activate the LaTeX equation tool. Access the equation editor from the toolbar, and click anywhere in your drawing to create a new equation object.
- Type your LaTeX code. Enter your equation in the provided input field in the sidebar.
- Preview and place. As you type, a live preview shows exactly how your equation will look. Once ready, place it anywhere in your diagram.
- Refine as needed. Resize, reposition, or edit your equation with just a few clicks.
It's that simple — whether you're labeling a graph, annotating a technical drawing, or creating a presentation slide, adding equations is completely straightforward.
