Syntax#
\,Takes no arguments. Same argspec in base and textmacros. Reading argspecs
Common tasks#
How to add a thin space in a differential#
\, is the usual thin space before dx, dA, and similar differentials.
How to space a sequence of numbers#
How to separate juxtaposed units or factors#
Examples#
Package variants#
| Package | Signature | Allowed mode | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
base | | math | Adds a thin math space between nearby symbols for fine typographic adjustment in formulas. |
textmacros | | text | Used to insert a thin manual space inside text fragments, such as fine separation in abbreviations, number-unit formatting, or other tight spacing adjustments. |
In TeXForm#
TeXForm parses this entry as prefix syntax; the package determines its argument specification.
Merge exact half-em small-spacer chunks into enspace in one pass.
\,\,\, \enspaceEquivalent forms#
\thinspaceexactBoth base mappings call BaseMethods.Spacer with MATHSPACE.thinmathspace.
\thinspaceexactIn the textmacros mappings,
\thinspaceis sent to the same Spacer method with the same thin-space width.
