Persistent problem with latex preview

  • LaTeX
  • Thread starter LCKurtz
  • Start date
In summary, users are experiencing problems with LaTeX rendering, where the preview shows the previous tex instead of the current one. This has been happening for about a week and affects both IE and Firefox. The suggested workaround is to refresh the page, but it is still a nuisance. Users are hoping for a solution and are reaching out to Chroot for help.

I can't speak for others, but I am still having problems with Latex rendering. Whenever I preview a post, the tex that renders is always from the last thing that I had posted previously. I have to refresh the page for it to render the current tex. This is true for both IE and Firefox. While the workaround does work, it is a real nuisance. This has been happening for about a week now. Please tell me someone is working on this..:cry:

Send a PM to Chroot, he is our LaTeX god :)

I did that (at least I think I did) but no response from him. Perhaps you could rattle his cage in case I fouled up the PM somehow. The problem persists.

As a fellow scientist, I understand the frustration of encountering persistent technical issues. It seems that there may be a glitch in the system causing the latex preview to not update properly. While I cannot speak for the team working on this platform, I can assure you that they are likely aware of the issue and are working to resolve it. In the meantime, I would suggest reaching out to the support team for further assistance. They may be able to provide a more specific timeline for when this issue will be resolved. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and I hope it will be resolved soon.
