textext VS inkscape-shortcut-manager

I attempted to solve the problem on my own, but unfortunately, I was unable to do so. Therefore, I am seeking for help by posting my issue here. I am currently experimenting with the 're-edit' feature of LaTeX code using textext in Inkscape. However, I am encountering difficulties as the feature does not seem to work correctly. It functions initially when I create it, but stops working if I click into it. In the attached image, I have provided a simple example of LaTeX code for both $M$ and $N$. Strangely, I am able to edit the code for $N$, but not for $M$. Hope that someone with more experience can help me resolve this problem. I came across a similar issue on the following link (https://github.com/textext/textext/issues/108), but I was still unable to find a solution. For reference, I have also attached the .svg file in case anyone would like to investigate further. This is the link to svg file: https://svgshare.com/s/toL

Thank you for the detailed help. I have successfully set it up, and the shortcut is now working properly. Regarding the re-edit, I have come across this link, which seems to address the same issue. I think I can experiment and resolve it myself. https://github.com/textext/textext/issues/108

I am unable to reply to any comments, so I’ll add my reply to blagie as a top-level comment instead: Gilles himself documents his process of using Inkscape here: castel.dev/post/lecture-notes-2/

As a summary, he uses a custom keyboard shortcut manager¹ which allows him to compos multiple keystrokes (and also saves commonly used styles):

> For example, when I press `s` and `f` simultaneously, my shortcut manager will apply a solid stroke and a grey fill to the current selection. When I want the stroke to be thick, I press `s+f+g` together, where `g` stands for thick (as the `t` key is hard to reach).

Since some of the underlying tools like inkscape-figures-manager and inkscape-shortcut-manager are specific to Linux and macOS (even worse, while the former does support macOS, the latter only support Linux, hence I need to write new scripts with macOS specific tool to achieve the same functionality), so sadly, windows users are left behind...

I'm reasonably proficient with the language and syntax of python however when it comes to making actual applications I don't really know where to start. I can make very simple applications using pyinstaller but I would be aiming for something with utility like this.
