Re: Latest updates/AMS LaTeX making variable sized delimiters (parentheses/brackets/braces) disappear?

perhaps it had some assumptions about amsmath (or similar) packages, assumptions that no longer exist?

Thanks Lars. It was yhmath playing up. Removed it and no issues.

Wonders what was the problem though. I’ve had yhmath loaded for a long time and nothing wrong has occurred until today.

Thanks

Hubert

Do you mind posting a full minimal example? Including a list of package versions being used.

How do you preview the result?

Sorry – I should add – it doesn’t work in the gather* and aligned environments.

It does work in inline math!

Hi all

Since the last update, whenever I use $\left(x^2\right)^2$, the variable sized parentheses/braces/brackets disappear, leaving me with this output:

Has anyone else seen this phenomenon? In my almost 10 years of using MiKTeX, there has not been an issue like this ever! This appears in the DVI as well as the PDF output (dvi -> ps -> pdf)

I’m on the latest packages available from the MiKTeX site.

Many Thanks

Hubert
