Copy-paste not works after mathquill mode changed

[BrtSmpsn]

Hi!

I'm have got this bug in my code but this can be reproduced on http://mathquill.com/demo.html in FF 25.0 with firebug installed.

Please open firebug console and execute next commands: var m = $.find('#editable-math'); $(m).mathquill(); $(m).mathquill('editable'); $(m).mathquill('latex', '\frac{d}{dx}\sqrt{x}=');

After this copy-paste not works in mathquill editor.

Yeah, doing .mathquill() on an already MathQuill-ified thing gets you into a bad state; doing .mathquill('editable') afterwards just adds insult to injury.

Can you fix this soon or recommend way around it?

[laughinghan]

Yeah, do .mathquill('revert') to already MathQuill-ified things before MathQuill-ifying them again.

Hi,

Thank you, next workaround works on demo page:

var m = $.find('#editable-math');
$(m).mathquill('revert');
$(m).mathquill('editable');
$(m).mathquill('latex', '\\frac{d}{dx}\\sqrt{x}=');

But this doesn't:

var m = $.find('#editable-math');
$(m).mathquill('');
$(m).mathquill('revert');
$(m).mathquill('editable');
$(m).mathquill('latex', '\\frac{d}{dx}\\sqrt{x}=');

I'm had some read only expressions on my page processed by $(m).mathquill('');. User can switch read only expression to edit mode and I can't find workaround for editable expression with success working copy-paste.

Yeah, sorry, the current API is terrible and $(m).mathquill('') breaks things.

Can you fix this soon or needed too much time for resolve this issue?

[laughinghan]

I don't think this is urgent, can't you just not call $(m).mathquill('')?

That problem will get fixed in the course of fixing the API to be less terrible.
