Formatting breaks with MathJax + bullet-points

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When creating a MathJax equation after a bullet-point on a card, the equation is placed on a new line, instead of the current line. Normally, the equation would be placed on the same line

Describe the solution you’d like
Have the equation placed on the same line, like normal

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Backspace behind the equation to get it onto the original line, but this is inconvenient

I’m not able to reproduce this with simple inline MathJax and an unordered list,

I think we’ll need more detail from you about exactly what you’re doing.

  • How are you entering the bulleted/unordered list? What buttons are you clicking and what keyboard shortcuts are you using?
  • How are you entering the MathJax equation? What buttons are you clicking and what keyboard shortcuts are you using?
  • What does the underlying HTML show when you enter the list and equation and the equation jumps to another line? Click < > above the field to open the HTML view and you can watch how it changes as you type in the Display view. Copy that HTML here and paste it in a `code/preformatted text block` by putting it between backticks.

Yes, I can clarify! I create the unordered list, then break out of it, and begin typing elsewhere on the card. Say you have some words on a fresh line after. Then ctrl + m + m mid sentence there. For me, the MathJax is pushed down unexpectedly.

That sounds like you’re still inside a formatting <div>. You’ll have to show us the HTML like I asked, to be sure what is going on.
