Hi Philip,
Sorry for taking so long to reply!
I haven't looked at SnuggleTeX for a long time now so I've had to dig back into the code to check. It looks like I never implemented aligned
. However I did implement eqnarray
, so perhaps that might be an acceptable alternative?
Here's your example using eqnarray*
:
\begin{eqnarray*}
a &=& b+c\\
a-c &=& b
\end{eqnarray*}
Cheers, David
Hi Dave,
Thanks for your reply and for taking the time to look into this.
I tried your suggestion with the following code using the jar from de.rototor which is the latest version I could find on maven (sorry I couldn't find a maven artifact from your git project).
String input = "\\begin{eqnarray*}\n" +
"a &=& b+c\\\\\n" +
"a-c &=& b\n" +
"\\end{eqnarray*}";
SnuggleEngine engine = new SnuggleEngine();
SnuggleSession session = engine.createSession();
SnuggleInput snuggleInput = new SnuggleInput("$$ "+input+" $$");
session.parseInput(snuggleInput);
XMLStringOutputOptions options = new XMLStringOutputOptions();
options.setSerializationMethod(SerializationMethod.XML);
options.setEncoding("UTF-8");
options.setIncludingXMLDeclaration(false);
System.out.println(session.buildXMLString(options));
but the output I get is just:
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="block"/>
Any ideas?
Many thanks Philip
Hi Philip,
I think the problem is you've wrapped your input inside '$$' delimiters, so you're trying to open your eqnarray* environment while inside math mode, which is a parsing error.
There's some information on getting details about getting notified about parsing errors in: https://www2.ph.ed.ac.uk/snuggletex/documentation/error-reporting.html
Try doing just:
SnuggleInput snuggleInput = new SnuggleInput(input);
That should hopefully be more successful.
(Sorry... I wrote this code a very long time ago and now can't remember very much about how it works!)
Hi Dave, Yes, removing the '$$' delimiters worked!
Thanks for all your help with this and the information about error reporting is also very handy.
Cheers Philip
Hi, just wondering if there's any way to do alignment of equals signs in SnuggleTeX or any plans to add this feature? For example
\begin{aligned}a&=b+c\\a-c&=b\end{aligned}
Many thanks Philip
