Attention
Version 3 is now the current version of MathJax. This document is for version 2.
The MathMenu extension¶
The options below control the operation of the contextual menu that is
available on mathematics that is typeset by MathJax.
They are listed with their default values. To set any of these
options, include a MathMenu
section in your
MathJax.Hub.Config()
call. For example
MathJax.Hub.Config({
MathMenu: {
delay: 600
}
});
would set the delay
option to 600 milliseconds.
-
delay: 150
This is the hover delay for the display (in milliseconds) for submenus in the contextual menu: when the mouse is over a submenu label for this long, the menu will appear. (The submenu also will appear if you click on its label.)
-
helpURL: "http://www.mathjax.org/help/user/"
This is the URL for the MathJax Help menu item. When the user selects that item, the browser opens a new window with this URL.
-
showRenderer: true
This controls whether the “Math Renderer” item will be displayed in the “Math Settings” submenu of the MathJax contextual menu. It allows the user to change between the HTML-CSS, NativeMML, and SVG output processors for the mathematics on the page. Set to
false
to prevent this menu item from showing.
-
showFontMenu: false
This controls whether the “Font Preference” item will be displayed in the “Math Settings” submenu of the MathJax contextual menu. This submenu lets the user select what font to use in the mathematics produced by the HTML-CSS output processor. Note that changing the selection in the font menu will cause the page to reload. Set to
false
to prevent this menu item from showing.
-
showLocale: true
This controls whether the “Language” item will be displayed in the MathJax contextual menu. This submenu allows the user to select the language to use for the MathJax user interface, including the contextual menu, the about and help dialogs, the message box at the lower left, and any warning messages produced by MathJax. Set this to
false
to prevent this menu item from showing. This will force the user to use the language you have set for MathJax.
-
showMathPlayer: true
This controls whether the “MathPlayer” item will be displayed in the “Math Settings” submenu of the MathJax contextual menu. This submenu lets the user select what events should be passed on to the MathPlayer plugin, when it is present. Mouse events can be passed on (so that clicks will be processed by MathPlayer rather than MathJax), and menu events can be passed on (to allow the user access to the MathPlayer menu). Set to
false
to prevent this menu item from showing.
-
showContext: false
This controls whether the “Contextual Menu” item will be displayed in the “Math Settings” submenu of the MathJax contextual menu. It allows the user to decide whether the MathJax menu or the browser’s default contextual menu will be shown when the context menu click occurs over mathematics typeset by MathJax. Set to
false
to prevent this menu item from showing.
-
windowSettings: { ... }
These are the settings for the
window.open()
call that creates the Show Source window. The initial width and height will be reset after the source is shown in an attempt to make the window fit the output better.
-
styles: {}
This is a list of CSS declarations for styling the menu components. See the definitions in
extensions/MathMenu.js
for details of what are defined by default. See CSS Style Objects for details on how to specify CSS style in a JavaScript object.
