fr est ce qu'on pourrait avoir une documentation , je ne comprends pas comment elle fonctionne même en cliquant sur l'icône , est ce que l'extension fonctionne avec la dernière version de chrome ?

en This is my one of my favorite extensions, but recently I saw it on the list of future unsupported apps. Hope that this can be resolved.

en Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn

es Las cosas básicas funcionan, pero si quieres poner un color distinto o algunas funciones de formato no funciona cuando el servidor de imágenes está en "WordPress". Por ejemplo $$\frac{kJ}{{\color{Red}mol}}$$ no funciona Debes ir a opciones y seleccionar "Codecogs"

en The message looks wonderful when writing the draft, but as soon as the message is sent, all LaTex equations disappear, leaving blank spaces where there should be maths...

Amazing extension and exactly what I wanted for such a long time! One thing I would not have imagine is that the rendered inline TeX equations are horizontally ALIGNED with the rest of the text, which is a MAGIC solution to writing TeX commands in any mails. One suggestion to improve this TeX4Gmail solution for high-dpi (which is a wide-spreading trend, 2K on mobiles/PCs and 4K on desktops) is fetching images of 600% scale factor (from CodeCogs or WordExpress) and downscaling it correspondingly. I did it by customizing the downloaded extension and adding an additional option of "upscaling 600% and downsizing to fit the text". It's a pity that Gmail has not support SVG even in 2022, where almost all other browsers (web and clients) have supported as shown here https://www.caniemail.com/features/image-svg/. Otherwise, this extension could be easily adapted to support rendering SVG format of TeX for Gmail, which is the ultimate solution I am looking forward to.
