Can't enter a backslash into a cell (e.g. needed for the markdown formula feature). #450

Any news on that? I would really love to see that working in order to write my documentation without hazzle within spyder |
@winnieXY Thanks for the reminder and sorry for not replying earlier. I just tried with a fresh conda install on Linux and it works for me, I have no problems typing the backslash. Maybe it's specific to Windows 10, or Windows in general. How did you install Spyder and the spyder_notebook plugin? |
Helllo @jitseniesen, |
Hey I have the same issue - can't write backslash in spyder notebook cells. |
@IsaTaup I don't know ... your issue seems to be slightly different in that you can copy-and-paste backslash which did not work for the original poster, but I understand that is not very satisfactory, especially if you want to write latex in your notebook. Thanks for mentioning you have a German keyboard, that is probably relevant. There is a similar issue in Jupyter at jupyter/notebook#2469 but I would guess that they resolved it by now. It mentions some workarounds: Type "´" (acute) before AltGr-ß, or the ascii code alt+92. Just to clarify: if you open a notebook in Jupyter in your web browser, you can type a backslash?

@jitseniesen thank you for your fast reply! |
Same issue here: cannot write backslash in a cell, can copy it. Annoying... PS: I have a Spanish keyboard. |
Thanks, it is good to know that Spanish keyboards also have this problem, that may make it easier to reproduce it on our side. I expect that a new version of Spyder and the notebook plugin will be released very soon which upgrades several components. Maybe that will resolve the issue (but I'm not hopeful). If not, I have one idea which might help but this is going to be tricky. |
Hey, No the issue is exactly the same. I can also copy& paste the backslash. I'm too in a German keyboard. |
Description of your problem
What steps will reproduce the problem?
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
That you can enter latex formulas within the markdown without any issues.
Please provide any additional information below (stack trace, screenshots, a gif, etc)
I think no screenshot needed - however feel free to contact me if you need one.
