Description
TexMaths is an addon designed to provide LaTeX support into LibreOffice. LaTeX equations can be inserted as images (SVG or PNG formats) and the LaTeX code is saved into the image attribute for further editing. To insert your first equation into a document, simply type a LaTex math instruction in the text field of the TexMaths Equations window and then click on the LaTeX button. Ex: x(t) = \mu ^2 (t) should produce the equation x(t)=µ²(t)

Very valuable extension, a gem! Thanks for your continuous efforts keeping it up and running. Works fabulous on Debian 12 Bookworm and LO 7.4.7.2.

I use the tikz package to create custom symbols in my lecture slides. This worked when I ran various versions of libreoffice on linux machines in the past, but now I'm trying to do the same on a Mac and it does not render the images using tikz. I verified the tikz package is installed by running the same code in other latex editors (like texshop). From what I can tell, the tikz commands are simply being skipped and the rest of the equations are being rendered.
I'm running libreoffice version 24.8.3.2 with texmaths version 0.52.3
Other than this I love texmaths, and it's the reason that I still use libreoffice to make slide decks. If this can be resolved, my rating would be a 5.
Roland Baudin Nov 16, 2024, 8:54 AM (35 days ago)
Dear Ethan, could you fill a bug report at https://sourceforge.net/p/texmaths/bugs/ with a precise example of the problem you found.
Thanks a lot,
RB
Ethan Brown Nov 26, 2024, 9:07 PM (25 days ago)
Thanks for helping sort out this bug, now it works like a charm! Is there a way for me to change my rating to 5 stars?

For anyone who is encountering an installation bug with version 0.52.1, this is a known issue that has been fixed and will be available at the next release. If you'd like to get the next release before it's published formally, you'll find it here: https://sourceforge.net/p/texmaths/bugs/189/#76a5/94eb

Alors que cela marche sans problème avec la version de libre office 3, la version 7 ne trouve pas usr/bin/latex alors que celui-ci existe bien !
Comment faire

Thank you very much for this essential extension for impress!
I want to give it five stars. I'm often running into the problem that I can't put an equation in a text box, which is a real pity.

1. Why do I need an entire bar for 4 logos (that could be one)?
2. Why doesn't it have a preview? I have to click the button every time I want to edit and see if it looks ok.
3. Autocomplete/Error detection would be great, but of course needs a lot of time
4. Why can't we contribute on e.g. GitHub? It could be a really great and important extension, but like this, it's not really well usable.

Works great but only with LibreOffice v7+

Great functionality, however, TexMath 0.49 constantly crashes on Linux LibreOffice 6.4.0.3, regardless of options, often when repositioning the formula
Jacob Cybulski May 14, 2021, 11:10 AM (4 years ago)
It seems that updating LibreOffice to version 7+ fixed the problems!
