Prevents automatical breaking of long expression #41

Closed cipri-tom closed 7 years ago

cipri-tom commented 7 years ago

Hi,

With this extension enabled, the equation in this answer on math.stackexchange is not rendered correctly. Disabling the extension allows the formula to be broken onto multiple lines.

With extension: screenshot from 2017-02-24 18 17 02

Without extension: screenshot from 2017-02-24 18 16 19

Can this be fixed ? Thank you!

I believe this can offer an idea: https://github.com/readium/readium-shared-js/issues/279

Thanks for the report.

The add-on is intended to make things more native so I personally don't plan to add hacks to workaround browser bugs. References: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110070 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534962

However, a separate add-on could be created, similar to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mathml-mml3ff/ (which BTW should be converted to https://github.com/fred-wang/Mathzilla/issues/24 and migrated to WebExtension) to add such hacks.

7 YEARS !! I wouldn't have imagined this is so old ! I understand your position, then; they really should fix it. Sorry I didn't research it properly
