MathJax3-extension doesn't enable MathJax3 rendering in Spyder

I seem to be having difficulties getting the mathjax3-extension to work. I've tried installing it through conda and through the jupyter labextension installer. Neither seems to enable rendering with MathJax3. I have two symptoms that indicate this:

  1. After rendering a LaTeX expression in a Jupyter Notebook, I right-click the rendered output and select "about MathJax". When running the Jupyter notebook "normally" with jupyter notebook, it indicates that it is using MathJax 2.7.9. When using the Jupyter notebook extension in Spyder, it indicates v2.7.5.
  2. In both environments, I attempt to load the physics package with $$\require{physics}$$. That line runs without error, but the physics package is clearly not loaded, since running $$\dv{y}{x}$$ returns a red \dv x y, indicating what I believe to be a LaTeX compilation error.

Any suggestions, or is this a known bug? If it helps, I have jupyterlab v3.5.0 installed in the environment, as well as spyder 5.4.2 and spyder-notebook 0.4.0. Thanks!

Welcome to the Jupyter community! 🎉

@hfbauman22 these renderers are only supported for JupyterLab and Jupyter Notebook v7+. Spyder is a separate application and you would need to contact Spyder team for help.
