. - InsetMarginal: Fine, but will need CSS. - InsetNomencl and InsetPrintNomencl: Also "advanced". - InsetRef: Presumably, this is an internal link. But what should the text be, and how - should we get it? Probably some validation thing again, where labels tell us where - they are. Alternatively, we could parse the aux file. - InsetTabular: This shouldn't be too hard, but will need doing. - InsetTOC: Here again, validation might do the trick, but I'm not sure. Or perhaps some - kind of post-processing? Another option, maybe the best option, would be just to use - the information we already have in the TOC. - InsetVSpace: This will be easy, once we have the Length::asHTML() method. - InsetWrap: This should be simple enough, probably a div and some CSS, but I'm not sure - precisely what this is supposed to do. - -MATH - Regarding math, the view seems to be that we should in the first instance just use what - we get from instant preview and copy those over to the output directory, and then try - to make MathML work. + InsetBibtex: There are a few issues here. + - One is that the output is not very nice. This will be solved, though, by + a patch of mine I seem to have forgotten to finish. + - Another issue concerns cross-references. At the moment, we simply use the + xref information for every entry, rather than listing the xref separately and + then referencing it. That should not be terribly hard, but it would take a bit + of work. + InsetBox: The CSS isn't there yet. + InsetFlex: I think this one is OK, but it needs some testing. + InsetFloat: This seems to work OK, but it will need testing and tweaking. There is + also no CSS yet for these. + InsetFloatList: Seems to work well, but may need testing. + InsetGraphics: This works in a pretty primitive way, in that it outputs the graphic + and appropriate img tag. But we don't yet do any sort of scaling, rotating, and + so forth. That won't be hard, since we can just call ImageMagick to do this for + us, but appropriate routines will need to be written. + InsetIndex and InsetPrintIndex: These work with limitations, as noted in the + Additional Features manual. + InsetNomencl and InsetPrintNomencl: Do not work at all yet, but would be easy to do. + First, Nomencl would need to go to the TOC, which it should do anyway. Then just + do as for TOC and Index, more or less. + InsetTabular: Works reasonably well, but we don't do anything with any of the + arguments provided for longtable. There are probably other limitations, too, + since I'm very much not an expert with tables. + + +Math + We have a fair bit of math now working via MathML output, but there are still some + isues, and not all the insets work. Here are the ones I know still need work: + - Array: Should be able to use alignment information via appropriate attributes, for + mtable, mrow, and mtd. + - Box: There is a general issue here with text mode nesting. See the FIXME attached + to the SetMode class. + - Lefteqn: For this, and numbering in general, probably need mlabeledtr, which may + mean we always need to output. + - Par? + - Phantom: There is some support for this in MathML.... + - Space: Needs checking. + - SpecialChar: Needs checking. + - Split: There are some alignment issues here, but it basically works. + - Tabular: This is more or less a text-like table in math. Probably output it + as a table, but set the font. + +Other math notes: + - AMSArray: Some of these should be handled via images. I need to investigate which. + - Hull: + - Need to handle the equation hull type by outputting a counter. But that will + have to wait for the counter patch. The counter probably goes with mlabeledtr, + which may mean we always need to output . + - Similar issues about eqnarray. + - It's not clear if we need to do much about the other hull types. + + +These insets do not work and are not yet scheduled to work: + InsetExternal: It may be that this won't be too hard, but I don't understand + these so am not sure what to do. For now, it is disabled.
