Description
Bug description
I would like to suggest en #enhancement that I believe would be beneficial for the Users.
The problem is that when author cross references to different part of the document (i.e. equation from different chapter) user is moved back and forth. How about in html format one could hover over the reference and would see the rendered equation (or a small version of the figure)? That would work like a footnote that is presented when hovered over.
I can see that there could be some issues when author is referencing to a range of equations (Equation 1.1 - 1.3).
