Feature Request: support for LaTex with mathjax #13

Closed Novite5 closed 5 years ago

Novite5 commented 5 years ago

Now AnkiTab cannot display cards contains latex formals. Wish support it in near future. Thank you!

Novite5 commented 5 years ago

Sorry! I found AnkiTab can display LaTex, only the mathjax format doesn't support.

corollari commented 5 years ago

If you send me some cards that include MathJax cards for testing I can include MathJax functionality into ankiTab (should be pretty easy as it's only including more scripts).

Novite5 commented 5 years ago

Sorry! I've already changed all the cards to LaTex. However, I found AnkiTab doesn't support LaTex shorthand.

Hi, @corollari I'd love to see this feature implemented (MathJax). I can provide you with example cards, but it's rather simple - just create a card with, say: \( f(x) = x^2 \)

MathJax is rendered live and higher resolution than LaTeX, plus my workflow allows me to use only MathJax.

corollari commented 5 years ago

@masteranza Noted. I'll keep it here till I have time to work on it.

same here, I cannot really use the plugin without it.

Just added MathJax support, it's currently working on branch mathjax. Not going to push the next version live yet because:

Firefox: I have to make sure that all the new files added comply with Firefox policies (including tracking down the all the dependencies of MathJax in it's unminimized form, checking if all the versions are a "stable release", checking licenses...)
Chrome: I have tested this version with my usual set of testing cards but i'm not 100% sure that I'm not adding a new edge case that causes some special type of cards to crash as I haven't been able to review all of the code on the new mathjax files. If someone is willing to test it and reports that it's working I'll push it live.

Hope it's worth the wait @Novite5 and @masteranza. If there's anything else just feel free to create a new issue :)

@corollari I just tested it, works fine for my cards (simple basic model). Thanks a lot!

masteranza commented 5 years ago

@corollari It works great! Thank you for making this happen!

corollari commented 5 years ago

@masteranza @annargrs Thanks, I'll push it live later today!

corollari commented 5 years ago

Published! Should be available in the chrome store in a few hours.
