Are mermaid.js markdown strings supported?

[chrisdburr]

Is the Markdown strings functionality of Mermaid.js supported in Material for MK Docs or is it still a new feature waiting to be implemented?

Mermaid.js Markdown Strings documentation: https://mermaid.js.org/syntax/flowchart.html#markdown-strings

Not sure if this is the same issue as mentioned here: #5771

In case it helps, here is a simple flowchart diagram that renders correctly using Mermaid's live editor, but does not display the bold, italics, or line breaks correctly in Material.

graph TD

A["`A sentence with **bold** text
split across two lines.`"] --> B;
B["`Some *italics*.`"];

Looks like it doesn't display as intended in GitHub discussions either 👆

Here's the raw text in case it helps:

graph TD

A["`A sentence with **bold** text
split across two lines.`"] --> B;
B["`Some *italics*.`"];

If it was added in Mermaid.js 10+, it's blocked by #5758

[chrisdburr]

Thanks. It does indeed seem like it was added in version 10+

Jup, if somebody wants to tackle it, we're happy to merge a PR. Other than that, we'll work on it once the dust settles on 9.2.

I am looking forward this feature as well. Hasn't it been implemented yet? If not, is there any workaround to make it work?

We're on the latest version of Mermaid.js, but I'm not sure what needs to be done to make it work.
