Mathmode and co

Mathmode is displayed online via MathJAX. That works quite well, but

  • within \text only a very limited TeX syntax is possible!

    For example: \text{Dit is \textit{italic}} works in TeX, but NOT in MathJAX! For example:

    (k becomes l− 1)
    works, but the following does not:
    (k becomes l− 1)
  • \hfill does not seem to work (correctly)
  • Ximera has a trick to make \newcommand work in MathJAX
  • Ximera implements (via some hacking!) \answer in MathJax 2.x (but, that does NOT work in MathJAX 3.x)

Answers and solutions

  • in \answer, \dfrac does not work (correct answer is counted as wrong!); use \frac

Numbering and co

The numbering of parts, sections, definitions, etc. is done (at least partly) by TeX (for PDF) as well as by Ximera (for online). This is inherently somewhat subtle, and differences may arise at some point. Also, dynamically including sections/ximeras/... or not (pdf/online/handout/...) may and will possibly cause issues with numbering/pagination.
