Customize context menu links from equations

Davide P. Cervone edited this page May 28, 2013 · 2 revisions

Hi,

is it possible to customize the context menu. For example if I display the Schrödinger equation \hat H \psi = E \psi I'd like to establish a link to the Hamilton-operator \hat H definition by a link if I click on that block.

Best regards


It is possible to modify the contextual menu globally (see modifymenu in the contributed MathJax extensions repository), but not on an equation-by-equation basis.

On the other hand, it is possible to make links from equations or portions of equations, so you could do

\href{Hamiltonian-Operator.html}{\hat H} \psi = E \psi

if you wanted. It is also possible to make the href point to a javascript function in case you wanted to open a pop-up window for example. Finally, you might consider the "knowl" extension which is designed to provide the type of functionality you are looking for.
