Coloring is a standart part of AsciiMath - http://asciimath.org/ see table Accents

Question

So we can use on http://asciimath.org a following text

color(red)(f(t))=color(blue)((a_0)/2 + sum_(n=1)^ooa_ncos((npit)/L)+sum_(n=1)^oo b_n\ sin((npit)/L))

to render a colored Image. Try it.

Is it realised in plantuml.jar? If yes, then option color can be ommited!

Thank you for your Support!

Answer 1

Ok, thanks for the tip.

Strangely AsciiMath generates some LaTeX code with \color macro but JLaTeXMath expects \textcolor macro.

Fortunately, we've implemented a tiny patch to change \color to \textcolor so with last beta http://beta.plantuml.net/plantuml.jar your following example is now working:

@startmath
color(red)(f(t))=color(blue)((a_0)/2 + sum_(n=1)^ooa_ncos((npit)/L)+sum_(n=1)^oo b_n\ sin((npit)/L))
@endmath

Thanks again for the tip!

Very nice! It is also possible to use the RGB hex value instead of color name. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value
For example
color(#008b8b)(f(t))=…
