Extensible delimiters (\left and \right)
See original GitHub issueFull brace list we need to support:
-
\left.
\right.
(empty delimiter) -
\left(
\right)
-
\left[
\right]
-
\left\{
\right\}
-
\left<
\right>
-
\left|
\right|
Plan
- take a look at Java implementation — at least JLatexMath seems to support those delimiters ~ F
- implement delimiters as a resizable characters (i.e. don’t split them into top / top-middle / etc. parts yet)
- add full support with splitting the characters into parts — it suddenly turned out that we already have those

This is definitely a feature that should be prioritised. I’m not sure if the Java library I ported from handled this at all (actually there were two Java libraries; one for plain TeX and one for LaTeX), but it’s worth a check. If not, having a look at the LaTeX source code may be informative.
Good spot. That was definitely the problem.
