Interactive Book

This topic is for discussions and announcements related to the interactive handbook.


  • Created by Martin Kraska, some pages contributed by Davide Carpi, french translations provided by Henri Girard.
  • Based on reverse engineering of the integrated Math reference book by Andrey Ivashov
  • Hundreds of interlinked bilingual (english/german) SMath-documents, some have french translations.
  • Install via extension manager (Tools> Plugins> Interactive Books)
  • Accessed via toolbar button [?]
  • Official page: https://en.smath.info/view/interactivebook/summary
  • Sources available in the SVN repository


This project is an attempt to provide something like an interactive help system.

File not found.File not found.File not found.

ToDo/Problems:


  • Contents and Back buttons in the handbook viewer window don't work
  • Incomplete function and plugin reference
  • Weak SMath integration (no hotkeys, no search)
  • French version is only partially done and out of maintenance.

I wondered why the version history stops at version 99 in the history viewer.

The issue is in the lexical sorting. You see that if you scroll down.
