QA: Highlighting operator + variable #602

Open alexrcabral opened 5 years ago

alexrcabral commented 5 years ago

Problem: When attempting to highlight a portion of a problem such as "+5" in the problem "3x+5", the highlight will automatically select the adjacent variable x. This makes doing crossouts, crossout & replace, stack below, and other functions difficult or impossible for most algebra problems using variables

(see screen recording at: https://youtu.be/leOT7AVL95w)

Solution: Highlighting should be able to stop at the end of the operator, as it currently does in the staging version.

@rupeshparab Do some investigation here and let us know if this is something better handled in mathlive

I went through the documentation, couldn't find any config for handling selection. I think this might be a bug in mathlive

I tried selection on mathlive's site with and without 'x': cd0a4a21ba461312387956a009f8c8f3 a0c1a191ad198fa4ac10d6360c23281a

It will be best if this issue is fixed at Mathlive's end
