Section / Heading

In Mathcha, the term Section is equivalent to a Heading in other word processors. Wherever you see “Section” in Mathcha, think of it as a heading level (H1, H2, H3).

  • Sections in Mathcha are similar to sections in LaTeX or headings in other word processors.
  • Sections are used in the Table of Content.
  • Sections are referenced by Section Reference
  • Sections are also partly used in:
    • Theorem (only Section Number)
    • Caption (only Section Number)
    • Printing (in Header/Footer)
