Missing math formatting in unevaluated math regions

 Description

The formatting rules in math regions are applied only after evaluation. Thus you can't use regions with just expressions or single names to be formatted correctly. This is particularly annoying if you use boolean = for inactive equations (for documentation purposes) or if you use single names for annotation of images.

Evaluating the region and deleting the result afterwards seems to solve the problem, however, the format is lost after reloading the file (browser refresh).

Another, more persistant trick, which works for undefined names only, is to symbolically evaluate them and then suppressing the input display in the context menu.

All this applies to both SMath in the cloud and build 6528 executables.

Thought-provoking—made me look at this from a new angle. Learned a lot. I recommend you to play Browser Tetris , Share a tool HEIC TO PDF Online , Free Online Concrete And Calculator Tool

There is a word puzzle game called nytimes crossword. It is a daily crossword puzzle that is famous for having good quality hints that get harder as the week goes on.

Interesting observation! The formatting quirk in SMath's math regions is definitely a nuisance, especially when using boolean equals or single names for annotations. Symbolically evaluating undefined names and suppressing input display is a clever workaround. Perhaps a future update could address this directly? Makes documentation a bit clunky otherwise. Reminds me of the interface at Papa's Pizzeria - functional, but could use some streamlining!

The game's control layout is designed to be as simple as possible, which enables users to quickly begin playing. Do not, however, be fooled by the game Snow Rider 3D's apparent ease of play; the level of difficulty swiftly grows as the speed of the game increases.

As you are attempting to guess two Dordle words simultaneously, you will get seven attempts instead of the standard five.

Confirmed. Thank you.

Formatting, however, doesn't start immediately when you write a new region. I starts only when you leave it

If you later edit the region, then all is formatted immediately.

This means that for new region you don't have immediate feedback if your input is taken as text or as math.

Please check it. If I remember correctly this must be already fixed.
