Description Klaus Rieger 2007-11-28 13:13:32 UTC
Version:           Kile 2.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

First: Thank you very much for the preview of formulas! The feature is great!

Second: If I use \begin{eqnarray}..., \begin{equation}..., \begin{align} and select "Fast Preview" -> Formular, I get a warning that there is no formular. The same command within $...$ works fine.

Third: In general a formular is not so big. So the preview below the text as png is more usefull. This great feature is implemented - Please make it default!

@First: Thanks in the name of all kile devs.

@Second: I don't know exactly what you mean by "Fast Preview"-> Formular. If you mean mathgroup, this is only meant to be used with $ ... $, \( .. \) and \[ ... \] with $$ ... $$ being not supported.
If you want to preview an environment, use the preview environment function.

@Third: We can check that.

Thanks a lot,
Thomas

Sorry, I have a german version: Schnellvorschau -> Mathematische Gruppe
Maybe: Fast Preview -> Mathematic Group
The shortcut is: Alt+Strg+P,M

If you mean mathgroup,
I think, that's right!

this is only meant to be used with $ ... $, \( .. \) and \[ ... \] with
$$ ... $$ being not supported.
I here that $$ is a bad idea, so there is no need to support.
But take this example:
          \begin{align}
            M_B
            & = i \cdot \eta_g \cdot M_{mot} \notag \\
            & =4{,}8 \cdot 0{,}8 \cdot 96{,}6\,\text{mNm} \notag \\
            & =370{,}944\,\text{mNm}
          \end{align}
This is a mathgroup, but is not supported!

Keep on your good work. I use the great Kile every day!
Klaus

Hello Klaus,

well I think it is just a matter of naming.
Currently we don't consider math environments as mathgroups. So for environments call Quick Preview->Environment and for mathgroups as described above QUick Preview->Mathgroup.

And the reason we don't support $$ .. $$ is only partly because it is discouraged but also that it is really tricky to support it.

Quick preview seems to be working fine for any selection, even those containing $$...$$ in 2.9. It also works fine for most common math. 
Quick preview for maths could be done without if Bug #284121 is addressed.
