Mathjax plugin predefined formulae buttons

[Daniel Merino]

I am trying to add several buttons to mathjax plugin dialog, so users that don't know mathjax can add several predefined formulae clicking on the buttons and only have to fill the gaps.

I have managed to add the buttons in mathjax.js file (1), but I've got stuck with scope issues. I can access the preview element, but not the equation textarea, that seems to not be available from any scope.

If I am able to get the desired behaviour (a button that adds text to the textarea so the generated image is refreshed with the new value), I plan to create a set of icon buttons and I will do a PR in GitHub to add them.

I have reported this issue also in StackOverflow (2).

Thanks in advance. Best regards.

I'm sorry, but this is a bug tracker. I need to close this ticket.

I think that this is a fair feature request for a highly desired feature (at least in the university I work in) for CKEditor's Mathjax plugin.

I'm just trying to solve it by myself, but if anybody else wants to solve it I would love to help.

Are feature requests accepted in the bug tracker? If you wish I can edit this one or create another.

Thanks in advance. Best regards.
