Typing SI Units With \mathrm{}

[noahcmilton]

Prior to the 1.10.0 release, I used to be able to trigger shortcuts inside of \mathrm{}, most commonly fractions, exponents, and custom multiplication symbols. When typing units, such as \left[\mathrm{\frac{W}{m^{2}\!\cdot\! K}}\right], I would simply write "[W/msr ux K", and get properly-formatted Roman font units. None of this works anymore since \mathrm{} is now treated as a text environment. If I were to modify my existing shortcuts to trigger in text environments, typing using \text{} would be disastrous. What can I do to solve this? Are there alternative methods that are just as easy?

you can use

const snippet = {trigger: "rm", replacement: "{\rm $0 }$1", options: "mA"}

removal of mathrm as text env will be in next release. Wasn't sure how I wanted to make the api for user defined textareas (and not make the performance worse as it was getting quite expensive) and bugs around math recognisition of 1.10 got in the way before I could look at it.
