Item13401: Font sizes in MathModePlugin
Priority: Normal
Current State: No Action Required

There is a problem with the font sizes in
MathModePlugin 4.04.
If you use the same formula multiple times, the hash seems to be the same regardless of the size attribute. The result is, that the last formula will be rendered and displayed multiple times.
Example:
<latex title="Calligraphics" size="tiny">
\cal
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, \\
\cal
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z
</latex>
<latex title="Calligraphics">
\cal
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, \\
\cal
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z
</latex>
<latex title="Calligraphics" size="huge">
\cal
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, \\
\cal
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z
</latex>
So what we - or at least I would expect is, that there will be 3 images rendered in tiny, the fallback size and huge. But if we take a look at the latex file which is generated:
\documentclass[fleqn,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage[normal]{xcolor}
\setlength{\mathindent}{0cm}
\definecolor{teal}{rgb}{0,0.5,0.5}
\definecolor{navy}{rgb}{0,0,0.5}
\definecolor{aqua}{rgb}{0,1,1}
\definecolor{lime}{rgb}{0,1,0}
\definecolor{maroon}{rgb}{0.5,0,0}
\definecolor{silver}{gray}{0.75}
\usepackage{latexsym}
\begin{document}
\pagestyle{empty}
\pagecolor{white}
{
\color{black}
\huge
\begin{multline*}\displaystyle \cal
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, \\
\cal
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z\end{multline*}
}
\clearpage
{
\color{black}
\huge
\begin{multline*}\displaystyle \cal
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, \\
\cal
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z\end{multline*}
}
\clearpage
{
\color{black}
\huge
\begin{multline*}\displaystyle \cal
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, \\
\cal
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z\end{multline*}
}
\clearpage
\end{document}
We can see, that there are only \huge font size tags rendered. If we change the last of the
tags to e.g. small, the tags will be all \small.

After an upgrade to new servers and Foswiki 2 we don't see this problem anymore.
