Content assist can be activated either by starting a LaTeX command (typing a \ character) or by pressing CTRL+SPACE. This will list all supported commands constrained by the text preceeding the cursor position.

1.1. A few formulas to try out

Open up a formula editor and paste the following snippets to see how they will render.

1.1.1. Multiline equations

\begin{align} +
f(x) & = (a+b)^2 \\ +
& = a^2+2ab+b^2 +
\end{align}

1.1.2. Simultaneous equations

\begin{cases} +
3x + 5y + z \\ +
7x - 2y + 4z \\ +
–6x + 3y + 2z +
\end{cases}

1.1.3. Case distinctions

f(n) = +
\begin{cases} +
n/2, & \text{if }n\text{ is even} \\ +
3n+1, & \text{if }n\text{ is odd} +
\end{cases}
Fractions
\Re{z} =\frac{n\pi \dfrac{\theta +\psi}{2}}{ +
\left(\dfrac{\theta +++\psi}{2}\right)^2+++ \left( \dfrac{1}{2} +
\log \left\lvert\dfrac{B}{A}\right\rvert\right)^2}
