help: disabling in-text LaTeX rendering in specific files

[leoduan0]

Neovim version (nvim -v)

0.11.5

Neovim distribution

N/A (use lazy.nvim package manager)

Description

I tried using latex = { enabled = false } to disable the in-line rendering of LaTeX equations in .tex files. However, even after adding that to my config, render-markdown would still display those equations.

The equations only disappeared after disabling the entire plugin.

See the below images for a screenshot of the plugin with the pasted config in a .tex and .md file with math equations.

I tried using latex = { enabled = false } to disable the in-line rendering of LaTeX equations

This should do exactly what you're asking. Just to cover my bases after updating your config did you restart neovim?

in a .tex and .md file with math equations

This plugin shouldn't run on .tex files at all (at least by default), this is very unexpected behavior.

Can you provide your entire configuration for this plugin, really just anything in your configuration that references this plugin.

[leoduan0]

I confirm that my attempts are complemented by restarting Neovim. If it helps, I'm using rmagatti/auto-session and runs :AutoSession delete <path> too. However, the equations on the .tex files would disappear after the restart only for them to slowly render back again.

This is my full config for render-markdown:

return {
  "MeanderingProgrammer/render-markdown.nvim",
  -- enabled = false,
  dependencies = { "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter", "nvim-mini/mini.icons" }, -- if you use standalone mini plugins
  ---@module 'render-markdown'
  ---@type render.md.UserConfig
  opts = {
    completions = { lsp = { enabled = true } },
    latex = { enabled = false },
  },
}

Nowhere else in my config do I reference render-markdown (other than lazy-lock.json, of course, but I don't see anything extraordinary there).

Do you normally have enabled = false set? If so this plugin shouldn't be running at all.

Lets see if a minimal init reproduces this behavior, save the following to a file called minit.lua:

local lazypath = vim.fn.stdpath('data') .. '/lazy/lazy.nvim'
assert(vim.uv.fs_stat(lazypath))
vim.opt.rtp:prepend(lazypath)

require('lazy').setup({
    {
        'MeanderingProgrammer/render-markdown.nvim',
        dependencies = { 'nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter', 'nvim-mini/mini.icons' },
        config = function()
            require('render-markdown').setup({
                latex = { enabled = false }, 
            })
        end,
    },
    {
        'nvim-mini/mini.icons',
        config = function()
            require('mini.icons').setup({})
        end,
    },
    {
        'nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter',
        build = ':TSUpdate',
        config = function()
            require('nvim-treesitter').install({
                'markdown',
                'markdown_inline',
                'html',
                'latex',
                'yaml',
            })
            vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('FileType', {
                group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup('Highlighter', {}),
                pattern = 'markdown',
                callback = function(args)
                    vim.treesitter.start(args.buf)
                end,
            })
        end,
    },
})

Then open one of your test files with nvim --clean -u minit.lua <file>, does this produce the same behavior?
