I am forwarding Neil's list so that it is accessible via the archives. ------- Forwarded Message Basic box types: RadicalBox/SqrtBox FractionBox GridBox RowBox -- horizontally justified text TextBox -- embedded strings that don't follow math notation rules ScriptBox -- various forms for position sub/superscripts, limits certain characters that occur in a limits position (such as '_', and '^') are treated as diacritical characters and formatted a little differently. Leaf boxes (not visible to the user): TokenBox SpanningBox -- used for characters that grow LineBox Boxes that override defaults: StyleBox -- indicates font and other option changes AdjustmentBox -- spacing tweaks including changing a boxes apparent size Some specialty boxes: FrameBox ButtonBox -- used for palettes/hyperlinks and other actions Semantics: InterpretationBox -- override the default interpretation of the contents Let me know if you have questions, Neil ------- End of Forwarded MessageReceived on Monday, 8 April 1996 10:17:41 UTC
