MathJax does not render in hover labels #559

Open nibage opened 8 years ago

nibage commented 8 years ago

In the example at https://plot.ly/javascript/LaTeX/ when hovering over the plotted points, the graph shows latex code instead of rendered math text.

Confirmed as a bug. Thanks for reporting this!.

Yep, thanks for reporting. This has been a bug ever since we added support for MathJax more than two years ago.

It might worthwhile to look into swapping MathJax for KaTeX.

sglyon commented 8 years ago

@etpinard has any testing been done on moving to KaTeX?

etpinard commented 8 years ago

@spencerlyon2 No. This is not a high priority for us at the moment,

The following page could be helpful for comparing MathJax v3 and KaTeX: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22582343

From my browser, it look like this, maybe escape sequence prefix is needed, for example '\\alpha' instead of '\alpha'

Also, I find that on firefox, the legend size is not correct. (Maybe I should open another issue.)

Now latex doesn't render in the basic example here: https://plotly.com/javascript/LaTeX/ image
