Possibility to include \vdots and \ddots #32

Closed luifrancgom closed 2 years ago

luifrancgom commented 3 years ago

I was annotating a plot that was build using ggplot2. I tried to use TeX($\\vdots$) and TeX($\\ddots$) but these options are not supported by latex2exp.

Can you include them in latex2exp?

Best wishes and thank you for building the package latex2exp

Unfortunately, as far as I know, this is not supported by R. latex2exp translates LaTeX to plotmath expressions (?plotmath), so it can only support commands and symbols that have a direct equivalent in plotmath.
