Odd Katex rendering

[mtseng15]

Hello Everyone,

First of all, I wanted to say THANK YOU for this lovely theme and excellent documentation. This is awesome work and I am very grateful.

This may be a weird configuration thing on my side, but I noticed that some of my latex equations are rendering oddly. Specifically, there is something with the vertical margins on overlines, underlines and super scripts. For example, the equation:

\overline{x}'(t) = \underline{A}\overline{x}(t), \;\; \overline{x}(0) = \overline{b}

renders just fine in the online Katex demo

But in the book theme it looks like:

where the overlines are too low and the underlines are too high.

Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this? It looks this could be a different font and I know Katex supports three different fonts so it makes me wonder if that is it.

I should also add this is my first time using Hugo and I'm still a little shaky on how all the templating works.

Thanks a lot!

Hi! Do you have any CSS overrides? I tried your snipped, and got this

@alex-shpak Thank you for responding and your awesome theme!

Interesting! So I started from scratch again and added pieces back in. I found that following the instructions here to let $$ and $ be used to denote equations is what caused the issue. I'm still very new do Hugo so I have no clue why it is affecting it.

Do you have any thoughts? Or advise? I would really like to use $$ and $ to denote equations since that's what I'm used to in my normal note taking.

I would also appreciate an explanation on why it is happening too for my own education and learning.

Thanks a lot!

Hm, try this:

1. put {{<katex />}} at the beginning of the page
2. use $$\overline{x}'(t) = \underline{A}\overline{x}(t), \;\; \overline{x}(0) = \overline{b}$$

I will take a look at passthrough, might be a plug-and-play replacement
