Maths equations in diagrams

You can add maths equations to your diagrams by enabling mathematical typesetting via the draw.io menu. When you enter an equation into a text shape or label, enabling mathematical typesetting will use MathJax to render your equation. MathJax renders equations neatly and works in all browsers.
Mathematical typesetting will render equations in text shapes, even when they are in tables

LaTeX and AsciiMath​

Input equations using LaTeX or AsciiMath.

  • LaTeX inline: \(\sqrt{3×-1}+(1+x)^2\)
  • AsciiMath inline: `a^b + b^2 = c^2`
  • LaTeX in a block: $$\sqrt{3×-1}+(1+x)^2$$

You can also mix LaTeX and AsciiMath inline in the one text field: LaTeX \(\sqrt{3×-1}+(1+x)^2\\) and AsciiMath `a^b + b^2 = c^2`

Enable mathematical typesetting​

Select Extras > Mathematical Typesetting in the draw.io menu to render your equations in MathJax.You can disable it at any time and see the equation's LaTeX or AsciiMath source through the same menu item.

Maths equations in tables​

Just like you can add shapes to table cells, you can also add maths equations to table cells and cross-functional tables.

You can now create a new diagram even faster by going to diagram.new or diagrams.new instead of having to remember the full app.diagrams.net address for the online version of draw.io.

.new is the first and only domain that is devoted to helping you get things done fast. Each and every address that ends with .new is an action that lets you create or share content online.

The .new domain helps you create content quickly​

Google has set up the .new domain exclusively to help you create and work with content quickly and easily. Several different types of content and actions are available already:

For example:

Instead of remembering the full URL of the websites and services, just enter the type of content you want to create or action you want to do and add .new to the end.

Only trusted apps​

As there is a rigorous application process with a well-defined registration and security policy, Google only grants trusted and reliable applications or shortcuts a .new address.

Try it out​

Go to diagram.new and create a new diagram.
