On the iPad, using Mathkey with the Apple Pencil has been delightful. I’ve been using Mathkey for about 3 months now and its accuracy is rarely off. This becomes especially powerful when you have an external keyboard for typing opened with Mathkey as your active keyboard. What exactly does Mathkey do? Instead of struggling with symbol/equation typesetting, Mathkey uses the MyScript engine to parse handwritten equations into an image or as snippets of LaTeX code (as plaintext) that you can insert into your editor of choice. Essentially, it is a LaTeX keyboard (add it under General->Keyboard) that receives input via touch, and can produce output as text or as an image. The iPad app costs $7.99 (rather reasonably priced IMO although it is also available via Setapp) and is available on the iPad as well as the iPhone (and Macbook). Although Texpad’s symbol editor tool is handy, I recently came across an app that makes complex typesetting, and equations, in particular, easy and intuitive.Ĭue: Mathkey. Texpad is still my LaTeX editor of choice (I wish this could somehow be integrated with Overleaf) and its latest version, with several updated tools, makes editing in LaTeX rather simple. The larger screen is more conducive for split-screen usage and the Apple Pencil compatibility is awesome (gives my post on note-taking tools a whole new depth - I should revisit that). For those not in the know, LaTeX is a typesetting language that has many uses, and can be particularly useful for writing manuscripts.Īfter graduating from a 8.2” iPad Mini 2.0 to a 9.7” 6th generation “educational” iPad, I’ve been getting more and more writing done on iPad. It is *still* remarkable to me that I can continue chipping away at a manuscript that I was working on in the office outside at the park - on a piece of glass. However, I do not want to manually force-texpad-dependency for every single file.I’ve been using LaTeX (enjoyably!) on iOS for quite some time now. How do I make it work with \animategraphics?ĮDIT: I can fix the issue with with %force-texpad-dependency Why does TexPad find the files with \includegraphics but not with \animategraphics? It all compiles correctly then, but after closing TexPad, I need to do it again. Moreover, after having included each file (slides-0.pdf, slides-1.pdf, slides-2.pdf) at least once and compiling, I can comment out \includegraphics and comment in \animategraphics again. If I comment out \animategraphics and comment in \includegraphics, the presentation compiles correctly. However, the file paths are correct and the files exist. (animate) Wrong file type? Mis-spelled file name?. (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.jpx', (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.j2k' or (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.jp2', (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.jpeg', (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.jpg', (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.png', (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.mps', (animate) `graphics/animations/gradient_descent_toofast/slides-0.pdf', With the above code, I obtain the error Package animate Error: None of the files I have the following frame in the presentation. In a beamer presentation, I am preparing I use the animate package. I compile with pdflatex in the cloud, but have also experienced the issue with the local custom Texpad texlive distribution. I am working with TexPad 1.8.12 on Mac OS X 10.15.4.
