Combination of Math Expression with actual alphabets

Feature description

Hi Simpleclub, many thanks for this flutter plugin. Kudos to the team.

I noticed that the keyboard has only Mathematics characters/letter. I would like to know if there future possibilities of having the Math's expressions and regular characters (A - Z) on the same form field?. For example: Enabling users to type: "Find the value of X in the {equation}". Currently, I can only input the equation without "Find the value of X in the"

Hi @abayomiAkanji - I would suggest trying with RichText and a WidgetSpan (and then not use any InputDecoration, i.e. remove the border). Did you give that a try?

Hi @creativecreatorormaybenot thanks for your response.

RichText couldn't provide that functionality. I wanted a field that can accept both maths equation and the regular text. Flutter' native TextField and this MathField would accept regular characters and math equations respectively.

I wanted to know if there is any plan to enable the MathField accept both equation and regular text.

@abayomiAkanji what would that look like? TeX only uses typeset fonts that are not really compatible with regular text 🤔
