latex preview table environment

latex preview table environment

[Jeremie Juste]

Hello,

I would like to preview easily latex table environment. I noticed that
org-toggle-latex-fragment shows the latex-preview for the tabular
environment but not for the table environment.

Would it be possible to find a to do that?
I tried to tweak org-latex-options in the following way in the hope
that the org-format latex would use only the tabular environment but it
did not work as expected. 

 (setq org-format-latex-options '(:foreground default :background default :scale 1.4 :html-foreground "Black" :html-background "Transparent" :html-scale 1.0 :matchers ("begin{.*[^table]}" "end{.*[^le]}" "$1" "$" "$$" "\\(" "\\[")))


Do you have any suggestions?

Best wishes,
Jeremie

For me, the preview shows both tables. My org-preview-latex-default-process
is set to imagemagick.

Hello,

Thanks for replying

my org-preview-latex-default-process variable is set to imagemagick as
well.

Interesting..., I wonder why the tabular would work but not the table
environment

Re: latex preview table environment

[Jeremie Juste]

I found the culprit. 

I have set my background color to black and forground color to white.

Yet when I adust the org-format-latex-options to see the preview white on black, the tabular environment displays the expected color setting but not the table environment.

So far I can only change the background color to preview the table environment but not the foreground color. I'll try to find a solution and come back if I do. In the meantime any idea to fix this issue is welcome :-).


Below are the settings with which I hope you could reproduce this phenomenon.

(set-background-color "black")
(set-foreground-color "white")
   
(setq org-format-latex-options '(:foreground "white" :background "black" :scale 1.4 :html-foreground "Black" :html-background "Transparent" :html-scale 1.0 :matchers ("begin{.*[^table]}" "end{.*[^le]}" "$1" "$" "$$" "\\(" "\\[")))

Thanks again,
Jeremie

When I switched my colour theme to one with a dark background, I found I
had to set org-format-latex-options to

    '(:background default :foreground default)

actually specifying colours did not seem to work for me.

 '(:background default :foreground default) work
for be as well.

I had as far as I can tell the following setting works for me. but I
need to remove the table environment for the foreground to turn blue (in
this case).


may be modifying the table after changing the color might help.  I always fall in this trap. 


(setq org-format-latex-options '(:foreground "blue" :background "gray" :scale 1.4))

\begin{table}
\begin{center}
  \begin{tabular}{ | l | c | r }
    \hline
    1 & 2 & 3 \\ \hline
    4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline
    7 & 8 & 9 \\
    \hline
  \end{tabular}
\end{center}
\end{table}
