Weird spacing inside of tooltips

After adding mtextInheritFont: true to tooltips I get extra spacing inside of the tooltips like the first picture.

There is also sometimes a lot of whitespace on the right like in the second picture

Now that Mathjax has line breaking, it is possible to do line breaking inside of mathtip (where I would specify the maximum width of the mathtip box)? I know it is inside of curly braces so maybe not. I have previously been adding // manually instead of using automatic line breaking because 4.0 wasn't out yet.

I was able to fix it by setting mtextInheritFont to false. I thought this would make the text inside of the equations have a bigger font size than the surrounding text but this I'm this did not happen. Maybe this is because of the Mathjax 4.0 update.

The tooltip uses CSS to scale down the tip size, and apparently that isn' being taken into account when the tooltip size is computed. That is a bug. I will make an issue tracker for it. Thanks for reporting the issue.

Hey Davide,

Thanks for replying to my message. I noticed that you replied to all of the recent messages except two older messages: one of them is by me here: https://groups.google.com/g/mathjax-users/c/i8BecekIoDI

This question is really important to me so I really hope you didn't miss it or forget about it. Even if it takes a some more weeks it would be really awesome if you could answer my question because it is a big deal for me.

I haven't forgotten, I just ran out of time. I will get to more when I can. I was going backward chronologically (how they are in my mailbox).
