This following code produce very strange result:
\documentclass[12pt]{book}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{mathabx}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\begin{document}
$$W_n(\underbrace{\mbox{\textvisiblespace},
\mbox{\textvisiblespace},
\dots,
\mbox{\textvisiblespace}
}_n
)
$$
\end{document}
If I just remove one of mathabx
or mathtools
the brace is displayed normally. Any ideas?
P.S. I use some symbols from mathabx
and some commands from mathtools
in the book, so I probably need both packages…
Best Answer
mathabx
has wider effects that aren't always predicted. maybe using just the particular symbols you need, and not loading the entire package, would get rid of this problem (not tried).good advice can be found at the question Importing a Single Symbol From a Different Font
