Feature Requests about infinitex

[fetacore]

Thank you very much for your kind words :D !
OK lets break it down so that I understand completely what you suggest:

• Latex Intellisense:

You mean more than just the suggestions that it already provides? There was a built in autocompletion option to get already written text as suggestions but I scrapped it because it provided useless results that where accidentally selected on enter. It would be awesome to have an emmet implementation where, if you have a mistake that will prevent the document from compiling, an error mark would appear at the specific line left margin, but this will be a pain to implement and I have some more pressing issues in mind. If you are familiar with Ace Editor and Emmet you are welcome to implement it and submit a pull request! In case I am off-topic tell me.

• Latex in Simple

Well I tried to give native support in Quill for tex ($ and $$) but I was unsuccessful, so I rewritten the formula blot. I am not familiar with Parchment (the model Quill uses in the back) and I had a really hard time understanding it so I ended up with this solution. In general I use quill.deltas for the editor contents and not html and I could not change on $ press or on $$ press the content of the delta into a formula key with the insides as value. In theory it can be done but it requires knowledge of Parchment which I do not have.

• Export Latex as transparent picture

You mean with the math editor? Like an svg/png file or base64 string? You lost me here :P

Waw, amazing response! :)
Lemme try to clarify some bits!

You mean more than just the suggestions that it already provides?
Right.. I'm a noob in LaTeX (but do find it very useful), so I was mainly testing the simple editor ;)
But yes, like that but for math commands as well, not just for what seems to be markup commands(?)

Yea, think you understood what I meant :)
Basically that it parses latex commands typed in the regular editor so you don't have to use the special input box

Ah yea, lemme explain the third one :p
See, I like mathematical formulas, however, sharing them, or just showing them to someone is a huge pain in the butt :s
Lemme show you what I mean! :)

You would then have a picture on your clipboard of that -1/12 equation
In this example, it's not real LaTeX, but you get the point ;)
I do understand that this request might be a bit off-topic.. :s

Cheers o/

OK so I managed to find a way to change the suggestions (but I could not add all of them). I also tried to make them somewhat intuitive, meaning that when you type \equation you get the snippet of \begin{equation} ... \end{equation} or some mathematical symbol snippets to appear like we call them, for example \muchgreaterthan translates to \gg which is >>. The work is not complete but if you or someone else have the time it would be really awesome to add more. On to your third request! For the second I really tried but quilljs is so tightly written that I cannot understand how to implement it (but I would really love to).
Check the new release and tell me what you think
Cheers!

Nice!

I wish I could assist but I'm really busy these days.. :/

You're doing an amazing job tho! :)

Thank you very much I am glad you like the project! Thanks for filing the issue as well I was never going to improve the snippets if it wasn't for you 👍

No probs, glad I could help! :)
